Bill Gates comments on future of Computer Science
eWEEK features an article on Bill Gates comments on the future of computer science education. On of the issues he addresses is the fact that the computer science industry uses an impressing small amount of its capital on R&D.
"We're saying to companies 'You ought to invest more in R&D,' this is our competitive edge," he said. "If you look at our competitors - put aside IBM, they're sort of a special case - the investment [in R&D] is pretty small."
If only the industry would use some more capital on R&D I am sure that a lot of cooler features would surface.
