Bill Gates: Steve Ballmer
built 202 days ago
Bill Gates got an unimpressive 420 on his SATs. He enrolled at Harvard University in the fall of 1973, intending to get a pre-law degree. While at Harvard, he met his future business partner, Steve Ballmer. At the same time, he co-authored and published a 780-page review paper on Star Trek: The Animated Series, calling it a "disappointment" and "boring".[2]

Is this the film every digital dame has been waiting for to finally put Bill Gates, Larry Ellison, and Steve Jobs in their proper place? Was software invented by a woman? A brilliant woman whom Charles Babbage accused of being "eccentric and promiscuous"? Lady Ada, countess of Lovelace, is the subject of Conceiving Ada, a compelling sci-fi tale about the mother of software.

Little Bill is all growed up now, and has finally made his father proud. "I've been waiting for more than 30 years to say this: Dad, I always told you I'd come back and get my degree," said Gates, who received a law degree on Thursday from Harvard after giving a commencement address to the students, the school he dropped out of to focus on Microsoft. "We recognize the most illustrious member of the Harvard College class of 1977 never to have graduated from Harvard," said Harvard University Provost Steven Hymen, who didn't seem too humbled to present the honorary degree. "It seems high time that his alma mater hand over the diploma." Bill Gates seemed more concerned with padding his resume... considering the fact that he's calling it quits at Microsoft soon. "I'll be changing my job next year, and it will be nice to finally have a college degree on my resume."
