@gamingonlinux Microsoft have the Gates Family background, where his mother, Mary Maxwell Gates, had contact with John Opel, CEO of IBM at time, in 1980s where is possible talk about son's startup software company and then Opel talk to other executives and director where weeks later end up hiring the services of Microsoft in creating first OS for personal Computers.

So it's would be easy if your mother have some contact with a member of board director of a triple AAA company to give a chance.
