The picture to the right shows him. It also shows an enormous Blue Screen of Death, a familiar sight to Quake gamers. More interestingly, it shows that BSOD running - or not running - on Windows XP rather than the more up-to-date Vista operating system.
According to Lenovo chairman, Yang Yuanqing, quoted in The Sydney Morning Herald, "If it's not stable, it could have some problems".
We wonder how ex-Microsoft CEO, Bill Gates - who was watching from the stands - felt about the whole thing.
And before you ask what the game reference is to this tale - it's the Olympic Game, isn't it!

We didn't see it because we were all playing Zoolympics on the Oric.

It's viral marketing, probably!
Otherwise no one would have bothered caring about the fact that it was running on Windows.

I imagine Bill`s dreams were crushed, his vision destroyed and inside his heart exploded and a single tear rolled down his cheek....

It was at that point Bill`s realisation came into fruition, he would return to the silicon valley office, he would lift up on the bust of Babbage’s head and press that red button, he would then walk down the stairs to the underground cave and follow the path through the slave dominatrix lair and continue into the personal prototype lab that bill had created in his mind back in the time of felony and college shenanigans except this now is a real place, There Bill could use It, he could use the machine he created, the machine that could regain the dream and un explode his heart inside,
Bill would use the `Flux Capacitor` which he had invented, the idea came to him while in the bathroom and banging his head on the sink, it suddenly became clear, and thus the flux capacitor was born, but would it work, Bill only had a short amount of time before the outside of his heart started to melt, and walking past dignitaries such as The American President, Chinese Prime Minister not to mention Paula Radcliffe would be no mean feat given to current situation, this would be a mission for the Justice Team of Geek, Bill Pushed his right fist into the air suddenly the large ring on his right forefinger began to glow and with a whooshing noise a giant Windows Logo was projected into the air.
Meanwhile, in a small ranch in Texas, George Lucas was writing a live action TV series based on the antics of Jar Jar Binks, “meesa Thirsty” George thought to himself in a smug humour like way, when he turned his head to the window, George almost leapt into the air as he could see the Windows Logo Projecting against the Sky, Holy Boomba Balls thought George.........
