Poor Bill Gates. Despite suffering through an embarrassing computer crash, nicknamed a Blue Screen Of Death (BSOD), Bill Gates promised that Microsoft would help consumers stay plugged into technology. The BSOD error happened during his high-profile 2005 keynote speech at the Consumer Electronics Show.

The Bill Gates BSOD Error During His CES Keynote

In his 7th annual keynote speech at the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES), Microsoft’s chairman explained that the proliferation of high-speed Internet access and the falling price of data storage are compelling people to put music, photos, movies and other aspects of their life into a digital format.

The embarrassing BSOD prompted jokes and guffaws, but Gates makes a compelling argument. In the next decade, it’s very likely that consumers will store most of their digital media in cloud storage and not locally on their computers.
