  Bill Gates has been a computer enthusiast since childhood. He was born on October 28, 1955 in Seattle, northwest Washington, USA. He was outgoing and lively from a young age, and was an energetic child. At any time, he sways back and forth in the cradle. It takes a lot of time to ride a spring-loaded wooden horse even longer. Later, he brought this swing habit into his adulthood and also into Microsoft, shaking the whole world. Bill Gates was passionate about mathematics and computers in high school. Paul Allen is his best alumnus, and the two often play a game of three combos on the computer at Lakeside High School. At that time, the computer was a small model of PDP8. Students could play games on connected terminals using a paper tape typewriter, and they could also create small software such as seat arrangement. Little Bill Gates was very skilled at playing. One summer in 1972, Paul, who was three years older than him, brought a magazine called Electronics and pointed to an article with only 10 paragraphs. He said that a newly established company called Intel had launched a microprocessor chip called the 8008.
