Gates Says No to Implants

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the do-i-need-a-new-topic-icon-now dept.

Tamas Feher from Hungary writes "The future of Slashdot's infamous Borg Bill thumbnail image may be in jeopardy after Microsoft founder William H. Gates said technology will one day allow computer implants - but hardwiring's not for him. 'One of the guys that works at Microsoft... always says to me 'I'm ready, plug me in,"' Gates said Friday at a Microsoft seminar in Singapore when he was asked whether computers would ever be implanted in the human brain. "I don't feel quite the same way. I'm happy to have the computer over there and I'm over here.' "

    Well now I can sleep at night knowing that Bill is not a she-male.

    I really don't care about computer implants. I'd be happy if no one tries to clone our dear Bill. Food for thought. Which would be worse - Adolf Hitler cloned or Bill Gates cloned - 100 years from now?
