Bill Gates : From Code Pioneer to Global Philanthropist Bill Gates is an American businessman, technologist, and philanthropist who famously co-founded Microsoft and helped spark the personal computer revolution. Born in Seattle in 1955, Gates showed an early aptitude for computing, writing his first program at age 13 on a school teletype terminal. This early spark eventually led him to drop out of Harvard University to pursue a bold vision with his childhood friend Paul Allen: putting "a computer on every desk and in every home". The Microsoft Era and the PC Revolution

In 1975, Gates and Allen founded Microsoft, a name derived from "microcomputer" and "software". The company’s trajectory changed forever in 1980 through a strategic partnership with IBM to provide the operating system for its first personal computer. 1600x900 Bill Gates Wallpaper">
