It also follows him into the exciting world of Microsoft in the 1980s.
Part Two:
In this documentary, Charles Simonyi tells the history of Microsoft’s business and creative challenges, and how, after becoming known as the father of Excel and Word, he went on to co-found his own company and to take up space travel.
