Microsoft was founded in 1975 by William H. Gates III and Paul Allen. The pair had teamed up in high school through their hobby of programming on the original PDP-10 computer from the Digital Equipment Corporation. In 1975 Popular Electronics magazine featured a cover story about the Altair 8800, the first personal computer (PC). The article inspired Gates and Allen to develop a version of the BASIC programming language for the Altair. They licensed the software to Micro Instrumentation and Telemetry Systems (MITS), the Altair’s manufacturer, and formed Microsoft (originally Micro-soft) in Albuquerque, New Mexico, to develop versions of BASIC for other computer companies.

It is someone you have probably heard of before, a very rich man, well known............ Yes it is Mr. Bill Gates from Seattle WA area (Redmond WA actually I believe). He also founded it with Paul Allen, another famous (though less so) person. Don't know to much about him, other than he is very rich.
