As we’ve mentioned this week already, tomorrow is Bill Gates’ last day at Microsoft in a full-time position. It’s what he’s known for the last several decades, and it’s the company he co-founded, so this is big news. People are putting together various tributes to the man who helped change the world we live, and BBC decided to take a look at the original Microsoft staff and see where they are today.
You’ve probably already seen the photo below because we included it in an earlier article about “Little known Facts About Bill Gates.” It shows the early team that made up Microsoft in 1978. They sure look young, don’t they? This photo was taken back when they were based out of New Mexico.
Recently the gang (even though all of them but Gates have left Microsoft) got back together for a reunion, and a new picture was taken.
All are pictured in the updated picture except Bob Wallace who died in 2002 (back row, middle in the original), and they are all standing in the same spots. They managed to emerge out of the 70′s pretty well, didn’t they?
It was definitely a smart thing for them to get together and re-take the picture, because now it will be even more memorable.
