**The highlight** of the annual Computer Bowl occurred when Bill
Gates, who was a judge, posed the following question to the
contestants:
"What contest, held via Usenet, is dedicated to examples of weird,
obscure, bizarre, and really bad programming?"
After a moment of silence, Jean-Louis Gassee (ex-honcho at Apple)
hit his buzzer and answered "Windows."
Mr. Bill's expression was, in the words of one who was there,
"classic."
\{ed I was there and it was indeed a fine expression. Note however, that
he does get the last laugh. The real contest is the Obfuscated C one.
Other highlights included when Gates, as a panelist, was asked to name
the three OSs first offered with the PC, and almost got one wrong.
(He said MS-DOS instead of PC-DOS.)\}
