How Did Microsoft Change the World?
7 Jan, 2010 | Posted by | under Top Marketers
http://twitter.com/chrispirillo - Community member Scott emailed me recently to ask for my help with a documentary he is creating about Microsoft. He knows that I’ve been using Microsoft since the days of DOS, and wanted to get my thoughts on a few questions he had. Not only did I agree to answer them in this video… I want YOUR opinions, as well. Go ahead and leave a follow-up comment with your answers to the questions that Scott asked. It will be interesting to see what everyone thinks, and how our opinions on the matters vary. http://chris.pirillo.com

obviously, but partners get more time.

i’m not sure i agree that MS is truly responsible for the state we are in now in technology…
i mean, chris said so himself, if MS wouldn’t have done it, somebody else would have…
i mean, MS isn’t exactly the most innovative or creative… they mostly copy good ideas from others and capitalize on their position in the industry to make it their own..
i will agree that, because of this, MS has done a lot to solve the issues of compatibility since they are the standard..

You have horrible grammar.

@Maticus2009 even if you are not a partner you can still upload a video up to 10:59 when you upload it it say make it 10 mins, but they mean around 10 mins so up to 10:59! :]

@dirtbiking06
Well, explain why infouplink, the channel for traveler from household hacker which was made December 30th of 2008 can upload more than 10 minute videos? It’s because he’s a YT partner.
dirtbiking06 | January 7th, 2010 at 2:12 am #
no it’s not…if you were a member before ~2006 when they changed the rule for the maximum time a video can be 10 minutes, the people who already had their accounts weren’t affected by this rules..

I know this becuase I am the world of tech. And A Mac hardware the only thing made from it is the motherboard memory the aluminum made from Apple everything made from Apple instead of the hardrive, proccer, bluetooth chip and that about it man well I like how you did your video that some compnet come from other company. Apple changed and other company world.

I find chris don’t get angry it’s my opion yes I hate microsoft and I want them out of bussience I do not want to see there operating system. I find that the internet and Apple changed the technology including intel they changed the world of tech.
Microsoft changed the world of gaming with system and the hardware thy did not do much I find again that Apple intel and the interent did change the world of tech with out them we will not be able to do anything.

oh yea and xerox

a high voice = a fail video and a one star rating
Chi7es | January 7th, 2010 at 2:12 am #
well so that you immediately are able to notice that the speed is different.
also you would have to lower pitch AFTER since doubling the speed automatically raises the pitch

he’s not a mac fanboy lockergnome is not a mac fanboy.
I think the reason he incorporated Apple into the picture with Microsoft is because so many of his viewers happen to be apple fanboys, so he had to reach out to them to explain how microsoft impacts them

@TutorialsForYou12
No, it’s because he’s a partner.

compare pc vs mac that was true given 3 years ago. There mac pro is a PC workstation tailored into there own package now. GUI was not invented by apple Steve jobs nicked it just as much as Microsoft did. the guy who built the GUI was not taken seriously and his work was ignored (IBM and DEC), typical really but Steve jobs and bill gates seen the potential. The inventors family has still not seen a penny from his work and that’s the truth was never patented, sick really

No. Chris got a Director account before YouTube constrained the time. So Chris can still upload videos over 10 minutes. I think he did this for fun.

I disagree with how you say that something is your opinion, and then say that it is truth. An opinion that fits with your experiences and present circumstances is NOT truth, but is still an opinion. Truth is infallible and immutable, no matter what point of view you employ on the issue.

@rsfrk14 I also asked for his service provider, thats when he said dell.
Purkinje90 | January 7th, 2010 at 2:12 am #
This is pretty lol when you get all fired up, Chris. It’s like a chipmunk gets angry and raises its voice even HIGHER.
Great points all around, in all seriousness though.
