Did Bill Gates personally write Microsoft Bob? I got the impression OP was referring to late 70s / early 80s Microsoft when Gates was still very much doing the coding himself, as opposed to the much bigger 90s Microsoft when he was a few layers removed. |

"'We were just ahead of our time, like most of our mistakes,' Gates says of personal agents like the notorious Clippy character."
"Gates has a personal connection to Microsoft Bob -- more than it being just another product launched on his watch -- as his wife, Melinda French Gates, was a marketing manager on the Bob project."
