As Gates pointed out back in the late 1990s, shortly before he appointed long time colleague and friend Steve Ballmer to the CEO spot: 'The only real disagreement Steve Ballmer [Gates' right-hand man at the time] and I ever had was when he joined the company. We had 25 people. He said, "We have to hire about 50 more people to deal with all this opportunity." I said, "No way, we can't afford it." I thought about it for a day and said, "Okay, you just hire as fast as you can, and only good people, and I'll tell you when you get ahead of the sanity picture." Here we are at 24,000 people now and still the key constraint is bringing in great people.’

1990年代後半、長い間の同僚のスティーブ・ボールマー氏をCEOに任命した少し前にゲイツ氏が指摘したよう、”唯一スティーブ・ボールマー(その当時ゲイツ氏右腕だった)と本当に意見が食い違ったのは、彼が会社に加入した時だった。私たちは25人の従業員がいた。彼は”このチャンスに対応するには後50人ほど雇わないと”と言った。私は”不可能だ、そんな余裕はないよ。”と返した。その事について一日考えて、彼に”よし、可能な限り早く雇ってくれ、それも良い人材のみを、君が正気を通り越すときに君に言うよ。” 現在の従業員数は24,000人おり、重要な条件は素晴らしい人を連れてくることだ。”
