Since childhood he has a hobby of "hiking", even until now even these activities are often did when he was "thinking".

Bill Small able to easily get through the primary school with excellent value, especially in teaching science and mathematics. Knowing this, parents Bill send his at a famous private school with good academic training, called "Lakeside." At that time, Lakeside had just bought a computer, and within a week, Bill Gates, Paul Allen and several other students (mostly later became the first programmer MICROSOFT) has spent all hours of computer classes for one year.

Allen headed to present MITS BASIC. And although, this is the first time for Allen to operate the Altair, was BASIC to work perfectly. A year later, Bill Gates left Harvard and founded Microsoft. Currently, Microsoft grew to be one creator and developer of software and operating system software market share of the world. Windows 95, 98, ME, 2000, XP are examples of Microsoft's operating system of production which were mostly used by computer users in the world.
