It's Easier To Add Things

People Are Building The Software And So Having The Pieces Be Such That A Single Person Understands All The Tradeoffs And Everything That's Going On In A Piece Is Extremely Valuable. It Avoids Getting Into An Experimental Mode Where You're Just Trying Things Out. That Never Works.

The Way To Be Successful In The Software World Is To Come Up With Breakthrough Software, And So Whether It's Microsoft Office Or Windows, Its Pushing That Forward. New Ideas, Surprising The Marketplace, So Good Engineering And Good Business Are One In The Same.

About Three Million Computers Get Sold Every Year In China, People Don't Pay For The Software. Someday They Will, Though. And As Long As They're Going To Steal It, We Want Them To Steal Ours. They'll Get Sort Of Addicted, And Then We'll Somehow Figure Out How To Collect Sometime In The Next Decade.

The Most Important People Is To Pick People Who Like To Write Software And Who Are Good At... Good Developers Like Working With Each Other. And They... They Reinforce Each Other's Skills.

This Is Something We're Very Committed To, It's Something That I Think People Are Underestimating Right Now As They've Seen Some Of The Dot-com Promises Not Come Through. I Think They're Missing The Fact That The Basic Technology Is Moving Forward, The New Platforms Are Here And This Vision Of The Digital Decade Will Be A Reality.
