Moderated by Norwood Robb. Andy Ihnatko discusses Microsoft's failures in programming, gives a personal anecdote about the incompatibility of Microsoft software with other operating systems, and displays a machine that he can control with his Mac. Roger Ebert describes why Microsoft is a successful company, recalls his initial frustrations with Windows, and examines why Windows dominates the business world. Richard Stallman argues that all computer industries are involved in unscrupulous business practices and mentions the development of free software. Tod Nielsen lists the "Top 10 Lessons" he learned from Bill Gates.
