Gates's New Frontier

SEATTLE -- As a high-school hacker in the early 1970s, Bill Gates
could see that technological advances would yield the first personal
computer. When that computer materialized, in the form of the Altair
8800, Gates and his buddy Paul Allen were the first to write an
operating system for it, and they founded a company called Microsoft
to market the program. In the three decades since then, Gates has
surfed the PC wave to unimaginable riches. The ride has imbued him
with a sunny techno-optimism, a belief that large dollops of human
intelligence can conjure up extraordinary progress.
