    Bill Gates is ultra-rich, famous and more beloved these days
    for his philanthropy than he was when he was making that
    Microsoft fortune that makes his generosity possible. What
    could he possibly have to regret? But Mr. Gates told
    Bloomberg's Global Business Forum this week that he wished
    he didn't have to press CtrlAltDel to log into
    your computer. I'm not sure you can go back and change
    small things in your life without putting the other things
    at risk, he said. Sure, if I could make one small edit,
    I'd make that a single-key operation. Bill Gates says that
    the IBM keyboard designers resisted the idea of a single
    click like the one Apple has. Everyone needs three fingers
    and two hands - unless you're LeBron James - to hit
    CtrlAltDel.
