Microsoft - The next fashion statement?

Microsoft will be launching a new line of clothing called "Softwear by Microsoft." It will be mostly concentrated on graphic t-shirts that will feature designs based on ancient 1980's MS-DOS fonts. Pictures of a much younger Bill Gates mugshot will be on some of the t-shirts as well. Common, the rapper who also grew up in the 80's will be the celebrity spokesperson for Softwear and also made contributions some of the designs on the shirts too.

bgC3 - Bill Gate's new mysterious company

After recently stepping down as an executive chairman, Bill Gates has started a new and mysterious company called bgC3, which he has kept very tightly under wraps. bgC3 is expected to be a think tank for scientific and technological innovations. According to the company's federal trademark registration the company will be involved in scientific and technological services, industrial analysis and research, and design and development of computer hardware and software as well.

More over, some have been wondering what the name represents. Obviously "bg" would stand for Bill Gates, and the "C" has been given a couple guesses as to what it might stand for. The first and most probable guess for what it might be is: company. That would make sense as C3 would mean Company 3, which really is his third company or enterprise after Microsoft and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. But TechFlash, a technological news souce based in Seattle, has reported that the "C" stands for "catalyst." The reason for this is that bgC3 will, aside from its other purposes, will act as a catalyst between Microsoft and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. So far, an insider has said that the statement is only half correct.
