Gates challenges auto industry to embrace technology

[snkTab]

I can just see you all. "OMG this update is lame... 'hey!!! some guy just honked at me when I cut him off on the freeway because I was checking macrumors instead of looking at my blind spot'', anyway, what was I saying... oh yeah, quad dual cell processor all the way"

But what runs the Sky Car?

I hope Mr Gates was speaking more to the processes of designing and building a car, then its operation.

Eventually, Gates said, there could be a car that wouldn't let itself crash.

I wonder what the automobile insurance industry would have to say about that.

injury, death, mahem = no
crashes, dents, broken windshields = yes!
