Now that “Big Bill” has quit the M$ ranks, here’s a quick snapshot of his time from creation to complete world domination:

From lots of early let downs, Bill Gates never got deterred:

Microsoft was invited and then uninvited to the launch event for the first IBM PC.

We’d been invited, and then they decided not to invite us,

Gates said. “Well, we had been working hard night and day.
I had told people, yeah, we had this invitation that said, yeah, we’re going to go, there’s going to be a big deal. And then they decided, nah, we don’t want you to come to the thing. That was a little bit of a downer.”

But it all works out in the end though, hey!
