Andy and Bill's law is a statement that new software will always consume any increase in computing power that new hardware can provide. The law originates from a humorous one-liner told in the 1990s during computing conferences: "what Andy giveth, Bill taketh away." The phrase is a riff upon the business strategies of former Intel CEO Andy Grove, and former CEO of Microsoft, Bill Gates. Intel and Microsoft had entered into a lucrative partnership in the 1980s through to the 1990s, and the standard chipsets in Microsoft Windows were Intel brand. Despite the profit Intel gained from the deal, Grove felt that Gates wasn't making full use of the powerful capabilities of Intel chips, and that he was in fact refusing to upgrade his software to achieve optimum hardware performance.

  • 安迪-比爾定律,是對硬體升級與軟體升級之間關係的陳述,是指新軟體總將耗盡新硬體所提高的任何計算能力。 這條定律源於1990年代在計算機會議上的一句小笑話:「安迪給的,比爾就會拿走」。「安迪給的,比爾就會拿走」這句話是對英特尔前執行長安迪·葛洛夫和微軟前執行長比尔·盖茨在商業策略上的風趣評論。 英特爾和微軟曾在1980年代至1990年代達成了利潤豐厚的合作關係,Microsoft Windows中的標準芯片组就是英特爾品牌。儘管英特爾從合作中獲得了利潤,但葛洛夫認為,蓋茨並沒有充分利用英特爾晶片的強大性能,葛洛夫還認為蓋茨實際上不肯升級軟體以使硬體發揮最佳性能。 葛洛夫對於微軟的軟體在英特爾硬體之中居主流地位感到沮喪,他的沮喪情緒公諸於世之後,催生了這句幽默的口號。 (zh)

Grove's frustration with the dominance of Microsoft software over Intel hardware became public, which spawned the humorous catchphrase; and, later, the law. (en)
