(SEATTLE) - The King of software Bill Gates has revealed that his oldest daughter who is 10 years old, can't use her Personal Computer more than 45 minutes per day.

Of course the time for studying is not included.

The news is curious but insiders say it's a really important message, above all because it was stated directly by Bill Gates, the man that grew up eating sandwiches and computers that is now the richest man of the world.

He introduced the problem of how the non-controlled use of a personal computer can be dangerous for children. So Bill and his wife Melinda have decided that Jennifer should only spend less than an hour a day playing and a bonus of an extra hour in weekends.

Of course the entire pronouncement had a second purpose too: to introduce the new Microsoft’s new Vista software, that "enables parents to control the Web sites their kids go to and also includes an audit log that records sites they have visited and whom they’ve been Instant Messaging.”
