Microsoft Team in 1987 and in 2008

Tomorrow is Bill Gates’ last day at Microsoft in a full-time position. It’s what he’s known for the last several decades.



In 1978, when Microsoft was three years old and based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, there were only a dozen people working for the company - compared with the current number of almost 90 000 employees worldwide.  

Here we have 11 of the early pioneers, in a photograph that has evolved from a snapshot to become a historic document. 










Little-Known Facts About Well-Known Leaders - Bill Gates


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.

Little-Known Facts About Well-Known Leaders - Bill Gates

Little-Known Facts About Well-Known Leaders - Bill Gates


William Henry Gates was born on October 28, 1955, in Seattle, Washington, USA.

His father William was a corporate lawyer, and his mother Mary was a schoolteacher.

By the age of 17, Gates had sold his first computer program, a time-tabling system for his high school, for $4,200.

Gates scored 1590 on his SAT standardized test. The top score for the test is 1600.

Gates told his university teachers he would be a millionaire by age 30. He became a billionaire at age 31.

While at Harvard, Gates co-wrote Altair BASIC, which became Microsoft's (then called Micro-Soft) first product.

He met his wife, Melinda French, in 1987 at a Microsoft press event in Manhattan while she was a worker for the company. They would go on to get married on New Years Day in 1994.

In 2002, Bill Gates was considered more idolized than Chinese Communist leader Mao Tse-tung in a poll of teenagers in Hong Kong and China. The survey was conducted by the City University of Hong Kong.

In 2005, Gates was honored with the title Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire by Queen Elizabeth II of England.

As of the March 2007 issue of Forbes magazine, Bill Gates has been listed as Number 1 on "Forbes' Richest People" list for 13 years in a row. His current net worth is about $56 billion.

Gates has recently announced that he will be reducing his involvement at Microsoft and will be devoting more time to his charity work.

He is currently having a building named after him at Carnegie Mellon University, called the Gates Building of Computer Science.

Gates is the current owner of the Codex Leicester — a 72-page collection of Leonardo da Vinci's scientific writings. The writings are a mixture of observations on water properties, astronomy, and rocks and fossils. Gates puts the Codex on public display once a year in a different city around the world.

Bill Gates earns $250 every SECOND; that's about $20 million a DAY and $7.8 billion a YEAR!

If he drops a thousand-dollar bill, he needn't even bother to pick it up because in the four seconds it would take him to pick it up, he would've already earned it back.

If you can keep your head by Rudyard Kipling

A inspirational poem "If you can keep your head" by Rudyard Kipling.

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;

If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;

If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with wornout tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;

If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!'

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;

If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run -
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man my son!

Wo dekho ek Chartered Accountant ja raha hai


Apni Profile ke bojh tale daba jaa raha hai,
Wo dekho ek Chartered Accountant ja raha hai,

Zindagi se hara hua hai,
Par " Balance sheet Tally " karne se haar nahi manata,
Apne excel sheet ki ek ek line ise rati hui hai,
Par aaj kaun se rang ke moje pehne hain, ye nahi janata,
Din par din ek excel file banata ja raha hai

Wo dekho ek Chartered Accountant ja raha hai,

Das hazaar line ki file main error dhoond lete hain lekin,
Majboor dost ki ankhon ki nami dikhayi nahi deti,
PC pe hazaar windows khuli hain,
Par dil ki khidki pe koi dastak sunayi nahi deti,
Satuday-sunday nahata nahi, week days ko naha raha hai,

Wo dekho ek Chartered Accountant ja raha hai,

linking karte karte pata hi nahi chala,
"Excel" ki priority kab maa-baap se high ho gayi,
Kitabon main gulab rakhne wala , cigerette ke dhuyen main kho gaya,
Dil ki zameen se armaanon ki vidayi ho gayi,
Weekends pe daroo peke jo jashna mana raha hai,

Wo dekho ek Chartered Accountant ja raha hai,

Maze lena ho iske to pooch lo,
"Salary Increment" ki party kab dila rahe ho,
Hansi udana ho to pooch lo,
"Leave" pe kab ja rahe ho?
Wo dekho Leave se laute team-mate ki chocolates kha raha hai,

Wo dekho ek Chartered Accountant ja raha hai,

Kharche badh rahe hain,
Baal kam ho rahe hain,
Income Tax ke sitam ho rahe hain,
Lo phir se bus choot gayi, Auto se aa raha hai,

Wo dekho ek Chartered Accountant ja raha hai,

Pizza gale se nahi utarta,
To "Coke" ke sahare nigal liya jata hai,
Office ki "Thali" dekh munh hai bigadta,
Maa ke hath ka wo khana baar roz yaad ata hai,
"Sprout bhel" bani hai phir bhi, free "Evening Snacks" kha raha hai,

Wo dekho ek Chartered Accountant ja raha hai,

Aapne ab tak li hongi bahut si chutikiya,
Chartered Accountant ke jivan ka sach batati ye akhri kuch panktiyan,
Hazaron ki tankhwah wala, company ki karodon ki jeb bharta hai,
Chartered Accountant wahi ban sakta hai, jo lohe ka jigar rakhta hai,
Hum log jee jee ke marte hain , zindagi hai kuch aisi,

Ek fauj ki naukri, doosri Chartered Accountant ki , dono ek jaisi,
Is kavita ka har shabd mere dil ki gehrayi se aa raha hai,

Wo dekho ek Chartered Accountant ja raha hai ..........

Presence of mind

In a shop a man asked for 1/2 kg of butter. The salesperson, a
young

boy, said that only 1kg packs were available in the shop, but the
man
insisted on buying only 1/2 kg. So the boy went inside to the
manager's room and said "An idiot outside wants to buy only 1/2 kg
of
butter". To his surprise, the customer was standing behind him. So
the boy added immediately, "And this gentleman wants to buy the
other
half!!!!!!".

After the customer left, the manager said "You have saved your
position by being clever enough at the right time. Where do you
come from?" To this the boy said, "I come from Mexico. The place
consists of only prostitutes and football players!!!!!"

The manager replied coldly, "My wife is also from Mexico".

To this the boy asked excitedly, "Oh yeah? Which team does she play for?"


So Friends, always Presence of mind help, never panic!!!!!!!!

Comic version of Ye daulat bhi le lo Lyrics

Here is the comic version of Ye daulat bhi le lo Lyrics

Read this, you will remember your college days....... Enjoy!!!

Yeh degree bhi lelo, ye naukari bhi lelo,
Bhale Chheen lo mujhse USA ka Visa............
magar mujhko lauta do college ka canteen,
vo chaay ka paani vo teeKha samosaa..........

kadi dhoop mein apne ghar se nikalnaa,
vo project ki Khatir shahar bhar bhataknaa,
vo lecture mein doston ki proxy lagaanaa,
vo sir ko chidhanaa ,vo aeroplane udaanaa,
vo submission ki raton ko jagnaa jagaanaa,
vo orals ki kahani vo practical ka Kissaa.....

bimaari ka reason de ke time badhanaa,
vo doosron ke assignments ko apnaa banaanaa,
vo seminar ke din paironka chhatpatanaa,
vo workshop mein din raat pasinaa bahanaa,
vo exam ke din ka bechain maahaul,
par vo maa ka vishvas - Teachar ka Bharosaa.....

vo pedon ke neeche gappe ladanaa,
vo raaton mein drawing sheets banaanaa,
vo exams ke akhari din theatre mein jaanaa,
! vo bhole se freshers ko hamesha sataanaa,
without any reason common off pe jaanaa,
test ke waqt table mein kitabon ko rakhnaa,
isi tarah teachers ko dena Jhansaa.........

college ki sabse purani nishaanee,
vo chaaywala jise saare kehte the... jaani,
vo jaani ke hathon ki 'cutting' chaay meethee,
vo chupkese journal mein bheji hui chitthi,
vo padh tehi chiththi uska bhadakna,
vo chehre ki laali vo aankhon ka Gussaa......

college ki wo saari lambisi raatein,
vo doston se canteen mein pyaari si baatein,
vo gathering ke din ka ladnaa Jhagadnaa,
vo ladkiyon ka yuhin hamesha akadnaa,
bhulaaye nahin bhool sakta hai koi,
vo college, vo batein, vo shararatein vo javani...

ka ash hum phir dohra sakte kahani......
vo kagaz ki k ashti vo barish ka pani.
