vs.
I don't have a strong opinion about either company, but this is obvious. You can see that Steve Jobs is giving a masterful demo of the iPod Video's simple remote control, while I don't even know what Bill Gates is saying here about "The Microsoft 'Live' Platform".
Incidentally, I recently heard PowerPoint presentations being discussed in an NPR interview. It is interesting because people make all kinds of presentations with PowerPoint, and you see people reading off the slides to varying degrees. The expert's opinion I heard is that it's best to use a PowerPoint presentation the way a television news program uses its graphics. It should be a simple visual with a handful of words about the central message. Most people write way too many words on their slides, and it is annoying for the audience to try to read them all between the presenter's spoken sentences.
