Bill Gates made it cool to be a geek.
He’s really leaving Microsoft this week. He’s not going to stick around and consult or advise, he’s officially retiring on June 27th, 2008.
He is going to spend most of his energy on another endeavor that fuels the public’s fascination with him: the world’s biggest philanthropy, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, funded largely by his own fortune.
