Bill Gates to get a little richer?

It's not like Bill Gates needs the money, but I would love to see him follow up with a certain Mr. Wil Shipley who bet him 10,000 dollars that Windows Vista wouldn't ship by January 2007.  I am sure the money would be used for a good cause if Bill got it.

 Mr. Shipley's bet

I think it would do the Windows Team a world of good to have Mr. Shipley who said  "there isn't a chance in hell you can ship that giant spaghetti monster to consumers "on time". " come on campus and personally had over the money to Bill in front of the whole team!  Then have a dunking tank featuring Mr Shipley to raise more money for charity.

What do you think?

I love that idea.  If they do, put the video on soapbox :)

Speaking of people who know what they're talking about, Wil Shipley bet Bill Gates that Microsoft couldn't
