Wow I cannot bieleve that it is him that made the computer I still do not get the whole thing? I mean I just do not get the inside of a computer what is all of the chips? How would you make chips what is in a chip?

That's interesting, lol. Pleno, there's only 14. . Maybe he changed the title though.
Ok, Bill Gates didn't make the computer, he designed the first OS, Windows. The first computer was called "UNIVAC", made by Eckbert and Maulchy, I think are the names. Back then all the computers used DOS (Disk Operating System), it was bland. A black screen, blah blah, nothing special. Bill Gates however, designed the first GUI, which is Graphical User Interface, or....WINDOWS! All nice and pretty images, no more black screens, only blue ones. HAHAHA. Yah(sarcasm).
Now my info may be wrong sorry if it is, go ahead and correct me .
Oh, ya, don't even ask me what UNIVAC stands for, I have no idea.
I have to say well done to bill gates for his success and bringing us all such wonderful computer interfaces.
BUT come on Bill can't you stop the damn things from crashing! lol I mean, in the 1970s we sent a whole host of men to the MOON! Now we can't build a PC that won't start up qucikly and won't freeze or crash on a regular basis? lol

o do this? of course id need knowledge and of course i dont have enough right now but im thinking
what kind of hardware/software and services? Now i know i would need a willing ISP who would allow
me to do this, and if it got popular i might need a private line to them for high speed internet. I
know i would need a web server and of course a router/modem to conect it to the ...
QUOTE MICROSOFT Corp Chairman Bill Gates said the company expects to meet a target of getting
its next version of Windows software, known as Vista, on store shelves by January. "The chance
that we will hit January for Vista looks to be 80 percent at this point," Gates told Microsoft
clients in Cape Town, South Africa yesterday, Bloomberg News reported. "Even though the amount of
investment we've put in over the various years is probably 8, 9 billion dollars," the release
