Computers in general 3.
The Microsoft story – Microsoft was founded in 1975 by two young men from Seattle (USA), Paul Allen and Bill Gates. Their first business was their BASIC programming language. During the following years Microsoft BASIC became a popular programming language for 8-bit personal computers. In the late seventies Microsoft was successful but still quite a small company of only a few people.
The breakthrough year was 1981 when Microsoft introduced their MS-DOS operating system on the IBM Personal Computer. The launch of Windows 3.0 in 1990 represented a completely new software approach on MS-DOS based computers. Since 1995 Windows has been a stand-alone operating system independent of MS-DOS. Bill Gates is without doubt a visionary who can perfectly foresee what users will need.
