What is the History of Microsoft?

Microsoft is a company founded by Bill Gates and Paul Allen in 1975. Initially, the company was a software company. The name Microsoft itself comes from a combination of two words, microcomputer, and software.

When it was just founded, Microsoft was still located in New Mexico. At its inception, the company was still a software company. However, Microsoft finally moved its location to Washington DC in 1979.

Now, Microsoft is one of the leading global companies. In 2020, Microsoft acquired ZeniMax Media and Activision Blizzard. The acquisition makes Microsoft not only a software company but also a company with various lines of business, including games and cloud.

Let's take a flashback to the early days when Microsoft was created by Bill Gates. When Microsoft was first introduced, people were still using typewriters. Microsoft was successfully founded by Gates when he and his friend.

Gates already had an interest in computers and programming while still in high school. Later, he attended Harvard and majored in Law. Even so, he is still pursuing programming. So, he was mostly in the Harvard University computer room.

Meanwhile, Allen became a programmer in Boston. He finally asked Gates to stop studying law and focus on their software development project. Then, Allen found an article about microcomputers in 1975. After being shown to Gates, they started to make programming languages that were compatible with microcomputers.

After eight weeks of doing it, they made a demo of using the software at MITS. MITS finally agreed to market the software made by Gates and Allen. It was this partnership with MITS that allowed Gates and Allen to found Microsoft in 1975.
