From the title of this paper you may have guessed that I am not very impressed with the guys in Redmond. One might even say that my dislike for Microsoft is a pet hate gone out of control in an almost quixotic fashion. Why is this? Of course I have been accused of personal antipathy, of being jealous of Bill Gates and his billions, and of being prejudiced against all things Microsoft without any reason whatsoever. None of this is true. I have nothing personal against Bill Gates. Why should I? I don't know the man, I've never met him. I agree with those who say he might be the most successful salesman in history.

  • Bill Gates, "Keynote Address to the Creating Digital Dividends Conference" (18 October 2000)
    Voices of Democracy 2 (2007): 227‐243 French 227 BILL GATES, "KEYNOTE ADDRESS TO THE CREATING DIGITAL DIVIDENDS CONFERENCE" (18 OCTOBER 2000) Sandra L. French Radford University Abstract: In the first twenty‐five years of Microsoft, Bill Gates established himself and his company as a powerful social force in the advancement of technology. Gates' keynote address to the 2000 Creating Digital Dividends conference, however, surprised attendees and the press by arguing against the establishment of technology in underdeveloped nations in favor of promotion world equity in healthcare. This speech presents a major shift in Gates' persona, and was largely derided as insincere philanthropy. Key Words: digital divide, technology, Bill Gates, health, crisis, computers. The influence of Bill Gates on technology, society, and global economics is undisputed. He co‐founded Microsoft in 1975 with the vision of a "computer on every desk and in every home"—a computer that would, of course, be running Microsoft software. In the first twenty‐five years of Microsoft, their software products have become the primary method for working, obtaining information, and communicating online. Gates' tenure as Microsoft's chief executive has come to symbolize for many the dawn of the information age and the resultant digital capitalism. Images of Gates are filtered to the public through the mass media and the increasing technological literacy of the global world. Technology is a popular subject of study for contemporary rhetoricians, and has been examined at the micro and macro levels. While much has been written about the development of the personal computer and its impact on society, little attention has been given to technology's business leaders.

  • Bill Gates- Biography.Pdf
    William H. Gates Chairman Microsoft Corporation William (Bill) H. Gates is chairman of Microsoft Corporation, the worldwide leader in software, services and solutions that help people and businesses realize their full potential. Microsoft had revenues of US$39.79 billion for the fiscal year ending June 2005, and employs more than 61,000 people in 102 countries and regions. On June 15, 2006, Microsoft announced that effective July 2008 Gates will transition out of a day-to-day role in the company to spend more time on his global health and education work at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. After July 2008 Gates will continue to serve as Microsoft’s chairman and an advisor on key development projects. The two-year transition process is to ensure that there is a smooth and orderly transfer of Gates’ daily responsibilities. Effective June 2006, Ray Ozzie has assumed Gates’ previous title as chief software architect and is working side by side with Gates on all technical architecture and product oversight responsibilities at Microsoft. Craig Mundie has assumed the new title of chief research and strategy officer at Microsoft and is working closely with Gates to assume his responsibility for the company’s research and incubation efforts. Born on Oct. 28, 1955, Gates grew up in Seattle with his two sisters. Their father, William H. Gates II, is a Seattle attorney. Their late mother, Mary Gates, was a schoolteacher, University of Washington regent, and chairwoman of United Way International. Gates attended public elementary school and the private Lakeside School. There, he discovered his interest in software and began programming computers at age 13.
