"there's No Ceo For The Government." But If You Were Ceo For A Day At The Government, Would You Have Tools And Reports And Wherewithal To Look At Government The Way A Business Would Look At Its Lines Of Business, Its Spending, Its Revenue?

The One Thing That I Think Separates Microsoft From A Lot Of Other People Is We Make Bold Bets. We're Persistent About Them, But We Make Them. A Lot Of People Won't Make A Bold Bet. A Bold Bet Doesn't Assure You Of Winning, But If You Make No Bold Bets You Can't Continue To Succeed. Our Industry Doesn't Allow You To Rest On Your Laurels Forever. I Mean, You Can Milk Any Great Idea. Any Idea That Turns Out To Be Truly Great Can Be Harvested For Tens Of Years. On The Other Hand, If You Want To Continue To Be Great, You've Got To Bet On New Things, Big, Bold Bets.
