Microsoft 1978

i am known for making fun of Microsoft, so while I am doign that, I am also making a valid point.
This is a photo of the people that came to be Microsoft. Now the largest most powerful corporation in the world.
Who knew? I mean, if these folks approached you and asked you to invest in this coporation, would you? Most wouldnt. But even more, these folks for all their lack of fashion, were also pitching the idea of building machines that could send mail without paper, and putting user friendly computers in every home in America.
I wonder how often they were scoffed?
And now, how far they have come! It boggles my mind, and it goes to show you cannot judge a book by its cover. As much as I dislike Microsoft, my hatsĀ off to these guys, not only are they ridiculously wealthy, they changed the world.
Bear in mind the person you next speak to in 10 years could be president, or some wealthy influential person.
