I’m using one of their magic boxes to type this fun fact. According to History dot com, it was on April 4 in 1975 that childhood friends Paul Alan and Bill Gates formed Microsoft. Originally based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Microsoft relocated to Washington State in 1979. The company licensed it’s MS-DOS operating system to IBM for use in it’s personal computer that debuted in 1981. In 1985 Windows was introduced to the world, in 1986 Microsoft went public at $21 a share raising 61 million dollars. The following year, 1987, 31-year-old Gates became the world’s youngest billionaire. If you had purchased on thousand shares of Microsoft in 1986, an investment of $21,000, it would be worth about 1.7 million dollars today.
