Gates' vision of television of the future was: "TV that will simply show what we want to see, when we want to see it. When we get home, the home computer will know who we are from our voice or our face. It will know what we want to watch, our favourite programmes, or what the kids shouldn't be allowed to see." My computer will sigh and say, "Nothing's on. Again."

Not me.. I'd be watching Home Improvement, The Simpsons, and Aqua Teen Hunger Force all day.

My computer will sigh and say, "Nothing's on. Again." Whenever Video On Demand reaches its fullest capacity, it will mean being able to access any recorded television -- movies, TV, sporting events, etc -- ever made.
