Bill Gates

That's right. Our good friend who runs the Science of Hitting, it's a great substack that does investment analysis and just was very generous sharing a large spreadsheet of historical data from Microsoft. It's very easy to parse and look things up live while we're doing the episode. And finally, last one from me to Todd Bishop at GeekWire.

Todd has these unreleased recordings from when he was covering Microsoft at the Seattle PI way back in the early 2000s. And he sent me the raw recordings, you know, when he was standing there with Bill and Steve just being a reporter. And it's very fun to hear their voices in ways that I don't think were ever released or publicly heard.

Wow. Oh, and I have one more. Thanks to good friend Arvind at Worldly Partners for some of the research that he provided as well. So thanks, Arvind. Well, with that, you should check out our previous episode, Microsoft Volume 1. If you've already heard that, check out our AWS episode. We also recommend our NVIDIA series.

Part 1 intersects nicely with this era of Microsoft, and we tell some of the PC gaming story from the NVIDIA angle. Lastly, of course, if you are sitting around right now and you're thinking, oh no, what should I do next? The answer is acquired.fm slash sf. We cannot wait to see you at the Chase Center. Mark freaking Zuckerberg is going to be there.

It's going to be the event of the century in the acquired world. So stay tuned. If you've always thought like, oh, I've always wanted to go to something like Omaha, you know, for the Berkshire Hathaway annual meeting, where I've just wanted to celebrate with other business and technology nerds who also like Acquired, this is going to be the greatest way you could ever imagine to do that. Yes.

Well, there weren't many countries, but a few responded very quickly to scale up the level of diagnostics.

And then they had quarantine policies that were well adhered to.

So Australia stands out and their death rate is about 10% of other rich countries.

So pretty dramatic benefit.

It's very likely to be a respiratory virus.

You know, when I did the 2015 TED talk and articles around that, you know, it was about respiratory because that can get out so quickly.

You're still healthy and you're on a plane or a bus and it could be bacterial infection.
