The Road Ahead
May 28, 2009

          The book I have been reading is called “The Road Ahead” and is written by Bill Gates. This book is telling me what is going to happen in the future of electronics and environmental friendly items such as cars and recycling. The thing is that this book was published in 1995 which means that its telling me what is recently happening and what is coming up in a few months. In this book you learn how to invest and what Bill Gates also made besides Microsoft.
          “The Road Ahead” is a very inspirational book even though I am living what the book is saying there are other things in the book that tells me how to invest in stuff. Also when you get older and you don’t   know how to save or invest you will end up going bankrupt or have terrible credit. Since Bill Gates is known for creating Microsoft this book is of course going to talk about computers like new Windows Vista and also the new Windows 7 which is the new and improved Windows vista with less problems more reliable on not getting viruses and faster. Actually in chapter three it teaches you the basics on how to use a computer like how to search stuff on the internet. But it also tells you if you mess up your computer cause you don’t know what your doing how to fix it and if you mess it up to much that you can take it to a specialist and they will fix it for you. This story also tells me about hybrid cars and the big factor right now which is recycling cause how thin our ozone layer is getting. Also this book talks about what Gates and his friends made on a computer before Microsoft. On their school computer’s like pinball, solitaire, painting, sodoku, etc. But in school their computers were so big people gave them a nickname called Dinosaurs.
            Even tough the book talks about most of these things that are happening know I feel that I am just a little ahead of some people, I am glad that I picked this book cause it gave me a educational push about...
