Did you know

Did you know that Bill Gates' house was designed on a Mac?

It was.

I read it a few places awhile ago, but that other "did you know" thread made me think of it. I'll look for a link.

Here you go, it's not the one I read awhile ago that really went into detail, but it does have some facts.

http://www.architosh.com/news/1999-0...housemac.phtml

"As it turns out the Mac was used on the Bill Gates residential complex in Medina, Washington, but not extensively. The project, we are told, was drawn entirely by hand -- and anyone who has seen this amazingly beautiful project can understand why. The garage part, however, was apparently modeled in ModelShop by Bohlin Cywinski Jackson staff architects working on the project."

If that's the case, I'd like to fuck up the same way he did.

Although, he was set from day one, his grandpa owned one of the largest banks in Washington, and he had a $1 million trust fund setup for him before he was ever born. So Microsoft or not, Bill Gates woulda had it all.

Yeah he has a nice place.. of course if I had that much money I think my place would be even more impressive.

You can't take it with you so you might as well enjoy it.

Yeah, I heard (I think it might have been on here) that he's buying up all the houses in his neighborhood. He used to be a very down to earth guy, I have family in Bellevue and they used to see him all the time eating pizza and stuff in the 80s, until he started getting death threats and stuff. Now he's real solitary. Maybe he'll turn into Howard Hughes.

I wonder if he knew it back then that they're using a mac?
