[34] While at Harvard, he met Paul Allen. Gates did not have a definite study plan while a student at Harvard [39] and spent a lot of time using the school's computers. Gates remained in contact with Paul Allen.

Gates and his Microsoft Corporation will be able to change the entire world. Yes, Bill Gates is a very famous person. Not only he has a lot of money, but also he is an aspirant person. I admire him very much, including his attentive, brainy, persevering, and frugal. So I think he is a real hero in our world.
