A Storyline Out of Date or a Reflection?
Looking to hear from the master himself (Bill Gates), I selected this book. However, I have to say that I was disappointed. My advice, if your looking for future insight on the tech world, or an up to date recollection on the tycoon's great life than this book is not it. Content is really just a reflection, to me anyway, of how far we have come and where we have been in tech. Made me grateful for email and smart phones I guess :)

This book is no longer relevant
Out dated information. This book is worth reading in 1995 or so. It is not worth reading in 2015. Not worth the time spent.

loved it can't wait to read more books buy Bill G.
absolutely love the information that I learned about the internet from this book I suggest that everyone read this book and I suggest we come together as a people and use the information in this book to see the evil that is being done over the internet to see how in 1993 Bill Gates predictions of the internet so many came true even the most terrible horrible predictions he made are now seemingly facts in today's society it's mind-blowing

Insightful
Bill Gates was clearly a few steps ahead of his time. As evidenced by this book.
