OK, I just assumed Bill wouldn't be paying himself. But as for the
rest, according to a Microsoft spokesperson:
"Microsoft sent out a casting director looking for interesting people
doing interesting things. In order to avoid swaying responses, this
person asked questions similar to those you might expect from a market
researcher on the street, determining how the person uses PCs in their
lives. We invited people with particularly captivating stories to
participate in the ads. They were compensated for their time."
