BTW...since you bring it up. Bill Gates didnt write DOS. He bought it and relicensed it to IBM.
Gates was in the right place at the right time. Instead of sitting back and boasting about it and how much money he made off the one deal... he continued to make his own luck by continuing to be at the right place at the right time.

Ya I am confused about it too... Kind of silly, really.
And I know Bill Gates didn't write DOS, but my point was more that everyone starts somewhere, and the smarts ones use the human or whatever resources at their disposal to get further ahead. Sometimes the "luck" of being in the right place at the right time involves working to put yourself there. Opportunities don't turn into much if you don't reach for them and strive to do the best you can with them.
