  • Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates is scheduled to appear on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart on Monday, January 29, the eve of Microsoft's Windows Vista launch.
  • News of the interview was confirmed by Tony Fox, the executive vice president for Comedy Central.
  • "He sure is!" said Fox, when asked if Bill Gates would be appearing on the program and talking about Vista.
  • Gates' visit to The Daily Show could be a particularly interesting one; John Hodgman, a regular contributor on the show, plays a "PC" on the Apple commercials that poke fun at Windows-platform computers.
  • The Daily Show, while taped earlier in the evening, airs at 11 p.m. EST, which is an hour before Vista's official midnight launch.
    
• CircuitCity in New Tampa, FL - is having a huge Launch event on Thursday, Feb 1st. - only 11 in the nation - Radio+TV and lots of happenings...I'm there.
  
• PS: Who's going to the MVP Summit 2007? I got Renaissance Seattle booked. If you know me and going - hit me up.
