Review # 1 was written on 2016-06-24 00:00:00 Denise Huete It's a long and boring advertisement of Microsoft. The main idea is: "If we look around we will find a lot of guys who have money but still don't spend it on our software. There are companies where all the processes can be improved with computers, and there are medical care system, and there are schools and universities, and armed forces, and governments of all levels, and all of them badly need different improvements. Humanity demands more computers to develop economics. And here we are: more computers - more Microsoft software, more income. Buy new device every 3 years, be modern, help society to develop technically. Buy new device every 3 years and make some money for our company with each of those devices. I'm even ready to write a book to encourage people to support technical progress of that kind."

Review # 2 was written on 2013-05-12 00:00:00 John Stapleton If you are a business person and would like to know how technology, specially computer and internet, can change and improve your business, you definitely need to read this book. Please don't think that this book will teach you stuff about computers because Bill Gates wrote it. This is not the case. This book teaches you how you can use computer and internet to save costs, improve performance, share knowledge and increase your sales and business operation. Reading this book in this era of computer and internet is not so exciting, but when you think about 1999 when internet was growing and computers were making their ways into businesses, you would realize what a visionary person Bill Gates was. Reading this book, you will understand that Bill Gates really knew about the future use of computers and different applications in the businesses and other areas of life. He talks about so many detailed examples of computer use in businesses, schools and medicine in 1999, but we see all these things today. This book is highly recommended for business students who are perusing a degree in information technology or knowledge management. A great read and a lot to learn from this book.
