Visions of Gates' keynote swan song
The line may already be forming in Las Vegas for the big event Sunday, the last performance of the Bill Gates roadshow before his role as chief visionary ends.
The Microsoft chairman will continue making speeches and drawing crowds at conferences, capitals and campuses around the world.
But there's nothing like the rock-star treatment of his annual opening-night keynote at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES).
By starting the show with talks on the future of consumer technology, Gates set the forward-looking tone of a bazaar where retailers learn what they'll sell in the coming years.
The speeches are more like Vegas shows than lectures, with elaborate sets, videos and celebrity appearances jazzing up the talk about gadgets and industry trends.
