Bill Gates predicted that the CPU clock speed would reach 10 GHz

Bill Gates predicted that the CPU clock speed would reach 10 GHz [Source: Driver house] [Author:] [Time:] less than a year after the announcement that he was about to leave his self-created Microsoft empire, bill Gates planned the prospects and opportunities Microsoft is facing. Gates said there are currently six industry trends that will directly determine the direction of Microsoft and its product strategies over the next few years. What is more unusual is that he mentioned the rapidly changing hardware industry, believing that this will directly generate new software applications. In the field of microprocessor over the past few years, the frequency war has become a history and replaced by multi-core parallel development. In Gates's view, this is a new "challenge". He also believes that "parallel operations will be the first choice to release the potential of the microprocessor", but Gates has not forgotten the clock speed, instead, we thought that the 10 GHz of our dream will soon become a reality, but "There will be no further improvement" and "it will be difficult even in year 56 ". Of course, Gates made a lot of predictions and made many implementations. So far, there are still a bunch of predictions. Whether the 10 GHz dream can come true depends on how the industry develops. Interestingly, on the issue of parallel code development, Gates mentioned only intel and AMD partners. Broadband networks are also important to Gates. Through the "large-scale data centers established by Microsoft and other enterprises", everything will not only be as simple as surfing the internet, but distributed computing will win the attention and participation of more users, in addition, the combination of the broadband network and offline storage technology will bring users more reliable backup solutions, and the interconnection between the Internet and mobile devices and enhanced information devices will also be enhanced. Finally, Gates talked about the natural user interface and thought it was "the most revolutionary change that will happen soon", while Microsoft is actively engaged in it, the recently released "surface" desktop operating platform is one of the achievements. Gates is not limited to his own yard, but he also mentioned the masterpiece of competitors: Nintendo's Wii host and Apple's iPhone.
