End of an Era as Gates exit Microsoft

Bill Gates may be one of those rare polarizing personalities who you either love or hate. But whatever you may feel about him and the behemoth that he created, Bill Gates has left a lasting impression on the world and has made so many things that we take for granted now possible.

The visionary has officially left Microsoft to pursue his philantrophic interests through the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the world’s largest charity, which is partly funded by his own personal fortune. Gates bid his Microsoft employees farewell at the Campus and was joined by CEO Steve Ballmer as he delivered a short speech.

Gates will not be entirely out of Microsoft though as he will remain the chairman of the company and will still work on special technology projects.
