Good morning, 12s. Here’s an observation of what’s ‘available for today – Monday, March 4 – about your Seattle Seahawks:
An Everlasting Relationship
On February 28, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates stood at a podium to speak at a celebration event for the new laptop technology building at the University of Washington. The $110 million, 135,000 square-foot construction is named after the Microsoft co-founder and his wife, Melinda Gates.
As Gates spoke eloquently before the gang, he recalled fond reminiscences with the late Microsoft co-founder and Seahawks owner Paul Allen. Gates mentioned stories he had with Allen sneaking into homes on the UW campus and tinkering around with the college’s computer systems, which turned into a key step in the journey that led them to launch Microsoft in later years.
Geekwire.Com reviews that Gates displayed a few apparent and rare emotions while speaking about Allen. “It might have been fantastic if Paul had been here,” said Gates concerning his longtime enterprise associate. “He deserves so much credit for what occurred at Microsoft and for usually believing in innovation and the University of Washington. Hopefully, he someplace can appreciate the terrific improvement this is taking location right here, incredibly in his honor.”
Allen also had a big effect on UW’s computer technology software, donating $14 million in 2003 to open the unique construction for this system. After Allen donated every other $40 million to UW, the school was renamed the Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science and Engineering. Gates and Allen have had a big effect on the UW CSE software over the years.
