- Portions of Gates' appearance have been previously uploaded but in inferior video quality. Here's his full appearance, including the show's Cold Open, the Quiz Machine, and homebase interview.
Bill gates is the only billionaire who laughs like a nerd, rather than how Jim Carrey said rich people would.
True
18:26
How cool is UA-cam that we can go back in time and watch these interviews. Bill gates didn't explain email well. No mention about shopping on the internet either.
ecommerse wasn't a thing yet
So cool
Yeah he didn't mention anything about Nigerian prince scams
Thank you Don for all these videos!!
0:0 That natural ergonomic keyboard design has aged really well.
That was when we were still learning about computers. Now the tables have turned.
id like to know what sort of high end resolution screens bill had in his house.
me too haha
B. Gates said they're trying to make the computers think, that was in 1995, this is the "vertual entelgintelligence" of today and tomorrow. That's the future, unbelievable how the things happen
And still autocorrect is not doing it's job
It's astounding to see how far we've come today with computing. Here's Letterman wondering how to possibly even utilize computer to keep up with baseball games (15:35). Today, the "computer" can do all that and much more all in the package that can fit into our pockets.
Lmao at the beginning of the quiz machine, letterman keeps blocking bill from the camera view. That was awkward to watch xD
I don't know why I enjoyed the Quiz Machine, but I did. I was sad when they destroyed it.
I got a kick that it broke down under Gates' watch.
Don Giller And how ironic that it was displaying a blue screen saying “Windows” when it crashed.

The funny thing is that it was actually just a bunch of green screens that they superimposed the text on. A laughably primitive prop. But yes, it was amusing that it crapped out when displaying Windows 95. Par for the course.
This is shortly before the Late Show theme and opening sequence was changed.
how cool would it be to bring this iphone 12 that i’m on right now, back in time to this show, and show it to Bill & Dave
look how ahead of his time he was.
he was explaining some of his visions of a computer to the world,
and now humans need to learn to work with his vision in schools as vital information to live in this era.
Alan Kalter was the greatest late night announcer of all time
A W ....he was perfect. His voice gives me happy flashbacks. ✌️
I knew more of Alan Kalter but after seeing Dave's earlier shows I think Bill Wendell fit better with Dave's comedy.
Looks like that internet thing worked out.
If he has kids.his entire family would be fine for generations .
Imagine Jimmy Fallon giving this interview, no real personality on display, no real human interaction, no interesting or funny questions asked, nothing of any interest added from Jimmy whatsoever.
30 friggin years dude... wow!
Farm raised & sugar frosted. I miss Ask Jeeves
this was a very funny interview!
you could, in fact, decode the surround sound even today
Eye opener. So much vision for Bill.
The Internet has come on leaps and bounds. It's fair to say it's a gamechanger.
At the time, Bill Gates did not seem remotely this charming to me. Are we more accepting of geeks now, or am I just old?
You taste improved hahaha jk
@@lysippus lol...at the point of this interview, bill gates could probably have bought dave letterman at least 50 times, microsoft corporation was already one of the biggest companies in the world.
Bill Gates was a good sport.
radio ring a bell tape recorder ring a bell haha
One of the very last shows with the first opening.
It's amazing how quickly things moved in just 10 years, between 1995 - 2005, and then again, between 2005 - 2015. A lot of smaller - yet crucial - developments have taken place since 2015. But we're probably at the beginning of another massive leap (I hesitate to say forward), as AI etc. transforms the internet again - what will the internet of 2034 be like?
Now we know that that Internet did not catch up, just a fad of the day, he couldn't be more wrong :)
Everytime someone says something is a fad it always seems to become a part of everyday life like video games and TV
What makes you think this isn't a really long fad?
I have an old website book.it told you every website on the net .looking back the other day.amazon was a small bookstore. And other sites were said to be the thing of the future. I do wonder how thick that book would be today.haha
16:28 - The birth of r/cigars and r/racing
But here’s the real lineage: Slashdot → Fark → Digg → Reddit
Gates was kinda stuck here because at the time, people typically connected to the internet via 56k dialup. The infrastructure to support high speed broadband into every home nationwide or indeed worldwide was not yet built out, and wouldn't be really until the 2000s. This meant that things that we take for granted now (downloading and live streaming of movies, TV shows etc.) weren't practical. So he couldn't say "you can stream everything" because at the time you couldn't, yet. Also social media didn't exist... there was no _technical_ reason in 1995 why a site like Facebook or even UA-cam couldn't exist, but nobody had thought of them or their business model yet. We had to let people use the internet for a decade or so before they really started figuring out what it would be popularly used for, what areas of life it would transform. And when you're sitting in 1995 stabbing in the dark at it, it's easy for a host like Letterman to take the piss out of you and make you sound stupid.
0:16 I'm dead 😂😂😂, he did not just do that
15:58 That joke did not age well.
I feel it aged like a fine wine... ;)
@@TheMartianReport Yes, now letterman is fat and old, and watches baseball games on his internet device
This is so crazy lettermsn wasnt biting and then boom computers run this world sadly and ppl are glued to their screen
@MB Broadus yes! Exactly hopefully we know how to live balancing both!
@MB Broadus it did
Some of the terms he said... like virtual... I thought was very futuristic and telling. The one thing he left out about the internet is the e-commerce part that I think Mr. Amazon was working on at the time. But to think at that time he already amassed 10's and 10's and 10's of billions of dollars... but you wouldn't know that by his demeanor. Very cool video... I love it... UA-cam the great time machine.
I mean both jeff and bill have networths of around 100 billion now. Theres no way they had more money in 1995 🤣
Ecommerce started with a bag of weed on MIT campus
Now we've got machine learning and computers are actually starting to think
Sounds fun.
Laugh at me now! B!
13:24 That's pretty good
26TH BIRTHDAY

Hey 2021-22! Come up with a more 'diverse' & (as Paul would say(channeling Ed Sullivan)) 'wild' lineup than Fishburn. Gates. McGraw. 2021, you suck.
