On April 4, 1975, Paul Allen and Bill Gates founded Microsoft, which was one of the first (and then largest) personal computer software makers.
In the first year, the company earned $ 16,000 and had three employees. The company's first product was BASIC for the Altair 8800 personal computer.
Happy Birthday!
