board of directors
In 1968,

school at the age 13.
In 1970,

12. • Gates did not have a definite
study plan while a student at
Harvard[31] and spent a lot of time
using the school's computers.
Gates remained in contact with
Paul Allen, and he joined him at
Honeywell during the summer of
1974.[32] The following year saw
the release of the
MITS Altair 8800 based on the
Intel 8080 CPU, and Gates and
Allen saw this as the opportunity
to start their own computer
software company.[33] He had
talked this decision over with his
parents, who were supportive of
him after seeing how much Gates
wanted to start a company.[31]

13. Amazing ability
• Bill was very bored at school
and his parents knew it so
they were always trying to
feed him more information
to keep him busy. Bills
parents finally decided to
put him in a private school
where he would be
challenged more. The
Lakeside private school had
just bought a new computer
when Bill arrived and he was
immediately hooked. Within
a week he had surpassed the
knowledge of the computer
teacher at Lakeside

His school time with his friend “Paul Allen”.

18. He wrote his first computer program when he was 13 years old.
It was a program to play farmer chess on. The computer he used
was big, heavy, slow and and he was totally obsessed. The
computer did not have a screen, so they made their move, and
they ran over to a big printer and looked at the score or who had
won. If they did it on paper each move would take about 30 sec.
but on the computer it took almost all the eating time.
Bill had an amazing ability to cram the whole course in one night
before the exam

19. Gates took an interest in programming the GE system
in BASIC, and was excused from math classes to
pursue his interest. He wrote his first computer
program on this machine: an implementation of
tic-tac-toe that allowed users to play games against
the computer. Gates was fascinated by the machine
and how it would always execute software code
perfectly. One of these systems was a PDP-10
belonging to Computer Center Corporation (CCC),

providing them computer time and royalties. After his
administrators became aware of his programming abilities,
Gates wrote the school's computer program to schedule
students in classes. He modified the code so that he was
placed in classes with mostly female students. He later stated
that "it was hard to tear myself away from a machine at
which I could so unambiguously demonstrate success."[22] At
age 17, Gates formed a venture with Allen, called Traf-O-Data
, to make traffic counters based on the Intel 8008 processor.[24]

system, because he believed that other hardware vendors
would clone IBM's system.[40] They did, and the sales of
MS-DOS made Microsoft a major player in the industry.
