Bill Gates: Guitar Hero?

Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates delivered a rousing pre-conference keynote at the Consumer Electronics Show on Sunday night (see our previous blog post for details) and even tried his hand at the popular videogame "Guitar Hero."
Robbie Bach, president of Microsoft's entertainment and devices division, challenged his boss to a showdown and I couldn’t bypass a mention of the duel since many of our readers (you know who you are) have become a bit obsessed with the game.
Bach brought out a ringer to assist: "Guitar Hero" champ Kelly Lyon. Not to be outdone, Gates unveiled his own ringer: Slash, the famed guitarist from the rock band Guns N' Roses. He closed out the session by wowing the crowd with his real-life strumming skills.
