Is that Bill Gates right of the robot?

To be fair, all the 8-bit computers I used in the 80's had Microsoft BASIC in ROM. Oddly enough, the Ataris didn't use Microsoft's interpreter.

And the Atari 400 my brother had, we had to buy the damn BASIC cartridge separately.

Of course, my brother became a Star Raiders ace, rather than a programming ace like me, ahem.
