Bill Gates was born on October 28, 1955, in Seattle. During his years at public school, Gates was not challenged and lost interest in school. It was here that he discovered his passion for computers after trying a newly purchased computer that at this school (Personal History). A friend helped him write his first program at this age, and Gates never stopped after that. In high school, he help the staff write programs for payroll. After this success, Bill co-founded a company with friend Allen that the government track street traffic patterns. In Harvard University he met Steve Ballmer, and his dream for Microsoft started becoming a reality.
Early in 1985, Window was released. However, not many companies wrote software for this new operating system, and many analysts wondered if Windows would succeed. Later, Bill went on to release Windows 95, Windows NT, Windows 98, Windows ME, Xbox, Xbox 360, Window 2000, and his most recent operating system, Windows XP and Windows 7.
