Bill Gates was born on the 28th of October 1955 in Seattle. His father, William Henry Gates , was a very popular lawyer. His mother who was a teacher earlier is now an active committee-member in many charity clubs. Bill was a very intelligent pupil who had always been the best one in his school class.
When Bill was 13 he went to Lakeside School, a private school . At 
school
Together with his friend Paul Allen he spent hours sitting in front of the computer. At night they often went to school to do a bit of computing. Once Bill told one of his teachers, that he is going to be a millionaire one day. He didn’t underestimate himself. At the age of 16, he sold his first software, which regulated the traffic lights in Seattle. When he had finished Lakeside School he went to Harvard and started studying law.

Microsoft
First Microsoft consisted just of two fanatic programmers, namly Paul Allen and Bill Gates, and they just made programming languages. Paul Allen did the Assembler programming and Bill made the actual program. When MITS had bought Basic, Microsoft began to grow rapidly.
In 1980, when Bill Gates was just 25 years old, Microsoft came in contact with IBM. This company dominated the market for computers and wanted now to make a home PC and therefore they needed an operating system. Microsoft got instructions from IBM to start developing MS-DOS.
MS-DOS 1,0 was published in August 1981. By the end of the year Microsoft had 125 employees. With the following versions MS-DOS became more and more important, which gave Microsoft a lot of control over the market.
But the next step followed quickly. Microsoft published applications like Word or Excel and was very successful. But Bill Gates realized, that the future of computers are graphical interfaces and Microsoft started programming Windows, which was to become the most successful product ever produced.
With Windows (including also Windows NT and Windows 95/98/Me) Microsoft could strengthen its position in the market. When Microsoft was floated on the stock market in 1986, Bill Gates became overnight one of the, richest men on earth. 2200 other employees of Microsoft were then in 1995 Multimillionaires.
