Bill Gates: Microsoft founder's farewell tour features memorable speeches

2008 was the year of the Gates' Farewell Tour. Gates has been filling convention centers for decades, and he did it again this year with his final keynote addresses at the Consumer Electronics Show in January (where he hung out on stage with guitarist Slash) and the TechEd developers' conference in June. But like any true rock star, Gates hasn't given up the limelight altogether, even starring in those short-lived Microsoft commercials with comedian Jerry Seinfeld.
