Via BBC: The way people interact with computers is going to dramatically change in the next five years, Microsoft chief Bill Gates has told BBC News.
He predicted that the keyboard and mouse would gradually give way to more intuitive and natural technologies.
In particular, he said, touch, vision and speech interfaces would become increasingly important.

Ha! That's one of my favorite jokes whenever I sit down at someone else's computer. Nobody ever gets it, though. Thanks for being who you are, Bromley.

Not to bash bill gates but I don't believe he is the visionary/pioneer in intuitive interfaces.

Bill Gates is less a person of creative ability and more a thief who is successful at stealing other people's ideas in a manner that makes him a huge profit.

there are definitely things in the future...I'm not quite sure that Microsoft is the company that will be spear heading this revolution however.
