He bought DOS from some guy that ripped off (reverse engineered) CPM. But give Bill credit he is a good salesman and he convinced IBM to use DOS as the OS on their new PC. IBM considered the PC a toy and did not think anything would come of it. But at the time gov was using a variety of small office computers (all of them as good or better than the IBM PC). But none of the office computers could communicate or share data with the others, so to end this mess Reagan declared that gov should adopt the IBM PC as the standard office computer. In an instant Bill Gates became a billionaire. Gates won the lottery. Other than being a good salesman Gates brings nothing to the table in terms of talent.
