How Bill Gates works

I bet you've always wondered: how does Bill Gates work? (from CNN Money)

Quote:

It's pretty incredible to look back 30 years to when Microsoft was starting and realize how work has been transformed. We're finally getting close to what I call the digital workstyle.

If you look at this office, there isn't much paper in it. On my desk I have three screens, synchronized to form a single desktop. I can drag items from one screen to the next. Once you have that large display area, you'll never go back, because it has a direct impact on productivity.

[i]Staying focused is one issue; that's the problem of information overload. The other problem is information underload. Being flooded with information doesn't mean we have the right information or that we're in touch with the right people.[i]

I suffer from the same problem. Unfortunately I am not Bill Gates and can have 10000 other people do the job for me
