Computer Walkie Talkie

Thus, not Nokia, people are not toys


Now it is time again when, as so often in recent years. Nokia has given us (subsidies are paid through taxes) and is cashed. Nokia goes to another country to collect and exploit workers. Who cares?

bother me it, it bothers me more than I can express. But I'm not to blame? It's still a long way and I was never directly affected, so I am indeed excited, but I've done nothing. And just as I am concerned many. Nokia is just the straw that breaks the camel's back. And hopefully not just me.

Nokia is also particularly good to do something that I see one, but I will do something or not. I will not buy Nokia products, not even then, if I submit a provider for 100 € on it. I'm not for sale, never been. And I will stay out no more, I'll get involved again, as I have done it long ago taken for granted. It is time to wake up, if we are to survive in Germany. I leave my fate no longer incompetent politicians.

And I have signed the protest against Nokia and for the employees in Bochum. JEHR more the better. And more detail here the link to this protest:

No Nokia - So Not!

Microsoft without Bill Gates? A farewell with sadness

Bill Gates announced yesterday at the CES (Consumer Electronics Show, Las Vegas) to his departure from Microsoft. I knew for some time, but now it is official and for me as someone who changed my life completely, even though he does not know me. But Bill Gates is not only my life has changed, but the lives of millions of people.

Thanks Bill Gates, there are new jobs in the world, thanks to Bill Gates has become much easier. With Bill Gates, the PC has also drawn in "Joe" one (by the way complains the most to a man of whom so much good went out). And thanks to Bill Gates I have a new job, which I in 1985, when the computer was at my feeder, do not even know that it exists. At that time there were no hard drives (at least not for me) and the operating system called DOS (Disk Operating System). I had previously made only in the study encounter with mainframes, had created punch cards and to Almighty operator passed and hoped that no errors were in my cards. And now I had this personal computer alone and running. I put it to me on a course for a new career was, I do not really conscious.

me feel sad is when I think of her farewell to Bill. I experienced it live last year and he was exactly my idea of a modest, yet self-confident man who was a little reminiscent of a großgeworenen rascals. Bill wants to devote himself entirely to his foundation starting in July and from which hardly anyone knows what this foundation is doing, especially in underdeveloped countries, everything.

At the last summit of the MVPs Bill 2006, held the opening speech (Keynote) and during this speech was asked by an MVP, "Hey Bill, I've got a $ 20 ticket for your foundation, what would you do with it"



And Bill Gates replied,
"Keep him and start a foundation designed to work with people and for people and you can see, your $ 20 ticket will bear good fruit."

Very impressive that answer.

is now the task for me to think of a new answer to for me not to answer questions in the forum or seminar (the popular "why" questions). So far I was able to succinctly say: Ask Bill, and what I do now? Ask Steve "Will Microsoft be made on a new personality, Steve Ballmer is safe or will it just a normal global players are anonymous and can not be seen, he that pulls the strings? The future will tell.

I can do is a my thanks to Bill Gates, for great ideas and the way he has enforced it. And that he has me pushed in a different professional direction.

Thanks Bill, I will miss you.
