Microsoft Corporation is a prominent American multinational technology firm headquartered in Redmond, Washington. The company is engaged in the development, manufacturing, licensing, support, and sale of computer software, consumer electronics, personal computers, and associated services. Among its most recognized software offerings are the Microsoft Windows operating systems, the Microsoft Office productivity suite, and the web browsers Internet Explorer and Edge. Its leading hardware products include the Xbox gaming consoles and the Microsoft Surface series of touchscreen personal computers. As of 2016, Microsoft was the largest software producer globally by revenue, although Alphabet/Google has since surpassed it. The name "Microsoft" is derived from a combination of "microcomputer" and "software." In the 2018 Fortune 500 rankings, Microsoft was positioned at No. 30 among the largest corporations in the United States based on total revenue. Founded by Bill Gates and Paul Allen on April 4, 1975, Microsoft initially focused on developing and selling BASIC interpreters for the Altair 8800. The company gained a dominant position in the personal computer operating system market with MS-DOS in the mid-1980s, later transitioning to Microsoft Windows. The initial public offering (IPO) in 1986 and the subsequent increase in share value resulted in the creation of three billionaires and approximately 12,000 millionaires among its employees. Since the 1990s, Microsoft has diversified its portfolio beyond operating systems, making several significant acquisitions, including LinkedIn for $26.2 billion in December 2016 and Skype Technologies for $8.5 billion in May 2011.
