Bill Gates' Speech at the Microsoft CEO Summit

Questions

  1. In this speech, Bill Gates uses the term demand elasticity twice (dealing with computers and high speed data lines). Is he referring to price, income, or cross-price elasticity of demand?
  2. Is he correct in arguing that revenue will increase when production costs fall (and supply increases) when demand is elastic? Explain.
