That’s right Bill Gates is taking his next step on his two-year transition out of his CEO role at Microsoft Corporation… His plans are not to go relax but to run his $33 Billion Non-Profit Organization, that he setup with his wife about 7 years ago… Gates departed is not a news flash he has been planning this for over a year and still has one more year with the company… His two successors (Ray Ozzie and Craig Mundie) in the picture above will take over the reigns of the software architecture operations and Steven Ballmer, Microsoft’s CEO for the past 7 years will continue in his position… Microsoft will deeply miss Gates but what a great time for him to leave with the high that the company is currently in with it’s release of Vista a couple of months ago and operations are running smoothly…
