My name is William Henry Gates III, AKA Bill 

Gates, The Founder of Micro-Soft, and that 

stands for Microchip Software. 

I was born in Seattle on October 28, 1955.   I have 

one older sister and one annoying younger sister.

A mom and a dad that support me very well.

My family was a mid-upper class family who 

lived in Seattle, Washington. I have two 

sisters, one older and one younger.

My parents were always very supportive of my

school work and athletics.   They wanted me to 

be successful. My family was very, very 

competitive. I would always enjoy spending 

time with my mom and my dad from time to 

time.  

I was a very smart kid, and my parents moved 

me to a private school, Lakeside Private School 

exactly. I was always into computers. Paul 

Allen and I would later become business 

partners and create Micro-Soft. And I started 

Hacking at the age of 13!

I wasn't much of a struggler. I only struggled 

in a few things that didn't really matter, like a 

few board games. I also wasn't the fastest of 

them all. I was really really smart and excelled 

in schoolwork. One major struggle is that I felt 

bored and insecure at times.

This is my high school, Lakeside Prep School. 

This is my private school that I switched to 

after my parents decided that the public school 

wasn't challenging enough. I would always 

enjoy hacking and because of hacking in the 

computer lab I was suspended from school.

I went to Harvard University were I met my 

soon business partner Paul Allen. But Allen and 

I later would drop out, even though we were 

excelling in all subjects and start a business. 

We made a computer ingenuity place where we 

made the traf-o-data which failed. 

The traf-o-data failed due to lack of efficacy 

and data.

Allen and I developed the first version of the 

Micro-Soft computer on April 4, 1975, in 

Albuquerque, NM. Microsoft wasn't that 

successful at first because like any new 

careers, nobody knew about it, the original 

console, 

Windows 1.0. Windows 1.0 was a little box a 

screen and a mouse with a whole bunch of 

cords, and it was annoying. Later paul Allen 

would get sick and break up the business.
