CES 2005: Gates Keynote Observation

I was watching clips from Bill's keynote... did anyone else notice that hed made a really poor choice in chairs? Compared to the behemoth that is Conan the advent... uh, I mean O'Brien, and the fact that it was so freakin wide... it just made him look really puny. What, does Bill have a big ass? Why did he need such a wide chair? He should have picked a skinnier chair with a shorter back... would have made him look more prominent.

I had the very same observation and mentioned it to several folks, but you're the first person I've seen to comment on it. It's almost as if they had the same folks that did the special effects for LOTR do the stage setup. Conan ended up looking larger than life, like a wizard, and Bill look smaller than life, like a hobbit. In addition to the chairs, there was Conan's little desk and I think there was even a platform. Very strange.
