First of all, Bill Gates had a bike that would be the envy of any twirly mustached hipster in Williamsburg. From this shot, you might think Gates was just an average nerdy kid riding around the neighborhood. But his rise to launching Microsoft wasn't completely uncharted. He is the son of brainiacs. Born in Seattle on October 28, 1955, Gate's father was a prominent lawyer while his mother served on the board of directors for First Interstate BancSystem and the United Way.
As synchronicity would have it, when Gates was in eighth grade, his school purchased a Teletype Model 33 ASR terminal and a block of computer time on a General Electric computer. Gates took an interest in programming and wrote his first computer program on this machine which allowed users to play tic-tac-toe against the computer. The rest is Bill Gate's history.
