Paul Allen & Bill Gates-I use a Windows-based laptop and Microsoft Office.  I always have and probably always will.   The co-founders of Microsoft Corporation have made remarkable contributions to the world by making it easier for everyone to operate a computer.  I can remember the first computer I ever worked with, long before Windows.  If we didn’t have Windows, I probably wouldn’t be using a computer.  Paul Gardner Allen is an American philanthropist, investor and innovator. Forbes magazine estimates Paul’s net worth to be 15.8 Billion. William Henry “Bill” Gates III is an American business magnate, philanthropist, investor, computer programmer, and inventor. The Wall Street Journal estimates Bill’s net worth to be around $82 Billion. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Allen http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Gates
