WHEN I WAS REALLY YOUNG, MY MOM CAME HOME WITH A COMPUTER ONE DAY. WE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS. WHEN THEY WERE BRAND NEW. IT WAS A PENTIUM RUNNING DOS, MY MOM BROUGHT IT HOME AND SHE'S LIKE, HERE.

SHE SAID THAT'S YOUR JOB. >> Jimmy: HOW OLD WERE YOU AT THE TIME? >> I WAS PROBABLY 11, 12 YEARS OLD. >> Jimmy: WHAT'S THE FIRST THING YOU WOULD DO ON THAT PENTIUM COMPUTER? >> THE COMMAND PROMPT. I WOULD TYPE THINGS, AND IT WOULD DO NOTHING. ONE DAY I TYPED D-I-R AND PRESSED ENTER AND IT SHOWED ME A TON OF FILES, AND I WOULD DO THAT EVERY DAY AND IT WOULD SCROLL, SCROLL, SCROLL. AND ONE DAY I FOUND OUT YOU COULD TYPE D-I-R/P WHICH MEANT PER PAGE AND MY LIFE CHANGED. >> Jimmy: WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOUR LIFE CHANGED? >> BECAUSE THEN I COULD SEE WHAT WAS ON THE COMPUTER. >> Jimmy: DIDN'T YOU HAVE A TELEVISION? >> IT WAS MAGIC. I FELL IN LOVE WITH THEM. I STARTED BUILDING COMPUTERS WHEN I WAS A KID. I BUILT MY OWN RIGS, LIKE WHEN I WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL, I HAD A FRIEND OF MINE NAMED ANDREW, AND HE TAUGHT ME HOW TO PIRATE CDs. >> Jimmy: OH, REALLY? NOW YOU'RE TALKIN'. >> ALLEGEDLY I PIRATED CDs. >> Jimmy: WHAT CDs DO YOU REMEMBER PIRATING. >> PEOPLE USED TO HATE ALBUMS. AND THEY WERE LIKE I WANT THAT SONG, THAT SONG AND THAT SONG.

AND I WOULD PUT SINGLES ON AN ALBUM FOR YOU. >> Jimmy: WE CALLED THEM MIX TAPES. >> I WOULD PLAY IT SO YOU COULD PLAY THE CD ONCE AND YOU WOULDN'T KNOW THE SONG HAD CHANGED. ONE MINUTE IT WAS MARIAH CAREY AND THEN NOTORIOUS B-I-G. I STILL BUILD THEM TODAY. I BUILD MY OWN GAMING RIGS AND EVERYTHING. >> Jimmy: WHAT ARE YOU UP TO AT MICROSOFT? YOU LIKE TO GO TO MICROSOFT HEADQUARTERS, AND DO YOU LIKE WORK THERE? OR DO YOU HANG AROUND? OR WHAT ARE YOU DOING WHILE YOU'RE THERE? >> YOU MAKE IT SOUND LIKE I JUST WALK AROUND AT MICROSOFT. >> Jimmy: THAT'S WHAT I IMAGINE. I IMAGINE YOU GOING AROUND TO CUBICLES AND PEOPLE TAKING PICTURES WITH YOU. >> THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED, REALLY ORGANICALLY. I WENT TO MICROSOFT TO TALK ABOUT MY BOOK. IN MY BOOK I SPOKE ABOUT COMPUTERS, AND THEY WERE LIKE YOU REALLY KNOW YOUR COMPUTER STUFF? I'M LIKE, YEAH. DO YOU WANT TO SEE SOME STUFF? YES. WE HAD A GREAT TIME. I WASN'T LIKE WALKING AROUND IN THE LABS LIKE WHAT'S THIS? AND I WAS LIKE, IS THAT WHAT I THINK IT IS, AND THEY WERE SURPRISED. I THINK IT'S GREAT, I HAVE AN EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATION IN AFRICA. MICROSOFT SAID WE'LL GIVE YOU ALL THE COMPUTERS YOU NEED TO OUTFIT SCHOOLS IN SOUTH AFRICA SO KIDS GET COMPUTERS. >> Jimmy: WOW, THAT'S NICE.
