Gates and Microsoft didn't really start hiring until 1980-81. I know. I used to help them find folks. The majority of business, small and large, didn't get PC's on every desk until the early 90's. Look how far we've come in a few short years, really.

The criteria for hiring in the early years was...can they type, and are they "mechanically minded".......MAN! Those were the days!
