Microsoft started as a small software company located in Albuquerque New Mexico. Microsoft was founded in 1975 by Bill Gates and his partner Paul Allen and started off as a small software company that created operating programs for PC's. This in turn grew and grew to become one of the biggest and most valuable companies in the world. As Microsoft expanded they felt the potential to grow and drifted away from solely selling computer software. Farther down along the road Microsoft dove into other business ventures including the sale of: Music devices, gaming devices as well as video game software. Some of the more popular products sold by Microsoft include: Windows 7 Professional, Microsoft Office Professional (2010), Windows Server Standard (2008) and many more. Microsoft has also held a dominant place in the gaming market with the release of the Xbox 360° (2005) and has brought in a completely rejuvenating market to Microsoft's repertoire of high grossing products.
