Microsoft was founded in 1975 by Bill Gates and Paul Allen. They are the creators of SharePoint, an amazing product which generates over a billion dollars in revenue for Microsoft and probably much more than that for Microsoft partners, independent developers (ISV's), and systems integrators. We thank Microsoft, not only for their wonderful product which has kept many of us busy and happy delivering quality products and services with SharePoint, but we also thank them for their generosity for letting us use their facility to hold SharePoint Saturday Boston.
