William Henry Gates III or more was known as Bill Gates, with Paul Allen, to be the founder and the director at the same time heading the production of Microsoft software. He was the richest person in the world of the version of the Forbes magazine.
Bill Gates was born in Seattle, Washington, from William Henry Gates Jr., a lawyer, and Mary Maxwell, the official First Interstate Bank, Pacific Northwest Bell, and the member the National United Way Level. Gates studied in Lakeside School, the elite's school that was most superior in Seattle, and continued attended lectures in the Harvard University, but provided out.
Gates was born on October 28 1955 as the second child from three related. His father of a lawyer with the company that had many connections in the city, and his mother of a teacher, who was active in the good deed activity. Bill a smart child, but he too much was full of the spirit and tended often to get the difficulty in the school. When he was eleven years old, his parents decided to make the change and to send him to Lakeside School, a primary school that was prestigious especially for the male child.
In Lakeside so during 1968 Gates was for the first time introduced with the world of the computer, in the form of the machine teletype that was connected by telephoning to a distribution computer of time. This machine, that was mentioned ASR-33, his situation still the market. In no matter what this a typewriter that inside the student could put the order that was sent to the computer; the answer came back wrote to the roll of paper in teletype. This process was troublesome, but changed the Gates life. He quickly was in charge of BASIC, the programming language of the computer, and together with hacker that taught himself in Lakeside, he passed time for hours wrote the program, carried out the game, and generally studied many matters about the computer.
Around 1975 Gates with Paul Allen still the school together prepared the program software first for the microcomputer.
When studying in Harvard, he and Paul Allen wrote Altair BASIC software for Altair 8800 in the decade 1970. Altair was the first successful personal computer. Given by the inspiration by BASIC, a computer language that was easy to be studied and written in the Dartmouth college to teach, the Gates version and Allen afterwards became Microsoft BASIC, the language of the translation computer that was main for the system of the computer operation of Ms DOS, that became the key in the Microsoft success. Microsoft Basic in eventually was made Microsoft QuickBasic. The version of Microsoft QuickBasic that was sold without compiler QuickBasic was known as QBasic. QuickBasic also was made to be Visual Basic, that still is popular till now.
At the beginning of the decade 1970 Gates wrote the letter was open to liked (open letter to hobbyists) that startled the community liked the computer with said that there is the commercial market for software/software and that software did not deserve to be copied and doubled without his publisher's permission.
In the period, this community was affected strong by amateur radio and ethics hacker, that believed that the innovation and knowledge ought to be divided by the user's community of the computer. Gates afterwards established Microsoft Corporation, one of the companies was most successful in the world,
Gates also received the reputation that was not good for his method of trading. One example was Ms DOS. It was final that the year the decade 1970, IBM planned to enter the personal computer market with the personal IBM computer, that was published in 1981.
IBM needed the operation system for his computer, that was planned could include and carry out architecture 16 bit by the family chip x86 Intel. After negotiating with an other company (the digital company research in California), IBM asked Microsoft. Without informed about their association with IBM, executives Microsoft bought an operation system x86 from the company Seattle Computer costing $50,000. There was the Microsoft possibility was banned by IBM to inform about his association to the layman. Microsoft afterwards the licence this operation system to IBM (that published him by the name of PC DOS) and worked with the computer company to publish him by the name of Ms DOS in each computer system that was sold.
The Microsoft plan very successful, but was sueing by Seattle Computer because of Microsoft did not inform concerning his association with IBM to buy the operation system cheaply; because of this, Microsoft paid money to Seattle Computer, but did not acknowledge his mistake. The Gates reputation afterwards more was defamed by the demand of the accusation of the monopoly by the Department of United States Justice and individual companies that opposed Microsoft in the decade end 1990.
Could not be denied that Bill Gates carried out several mistakes in the business software him. This was proven with several accusations that were aimed at him regarding business methods that violated US business regulations, for example the monopoly on the Explorer Internet in the Windows operation system.
During 2000 Bill Gates withdrew from his position as Chairman of the Executive and give him to the friend of the length, Steve Ballmer.
Gates afterwards chose to return to the length profession that he loved, that is as the creator of software. Currently Bill Gates becomes the Head of Software Research And Development in his company personally, Microsoft Corp.
With his wife, Gates established Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, a social foundation of philanthropy. The critics said this was authentication towards the crowd's anger about on the practice of the monopoly and his company's superpower, but they who close to Gates said that he has for a long time planned to contribute most of his wealths.
