Microsoft was founded in 1975 by Bill Gates and Paul Allen, initially focusing on developing software for personal computers. The company's significant breakthrough occurred in 1980 with a deal to provide software for IBM's first PC. This led to the creation of MS-DOS, and subsequently, Windows, which has evolved into the dominant operating system today. Office software launched in 1989 significantly contributed to productivity. Over 50 years, Microsoft expanded into gaming with Xbox and cloud computing with Azure, becoming a fundamental player in global technology.
Microsoft's journey began in 1975 with the development of software for the Altair 8800, evolving into a tech giant with Windows and Office.
From striking a pivotal deal with IBM in 1980 to launching Windows 95, Microsoft revolutionized personal computing and the software industry.
