I sense a Neowin member with a lot of cash donating us a piece of history with our newly crowned Neowin HQ in the US.

According to property retailers Commercial Association of Realtors New Mexico, the first office where Bill Gates and Paul Allen made Microsoft a reality will set you back a cool $82,950 for 1,185 square feet of office and storage space

The description is as follows: Own a piece of history, the original building where Bill Gates and Paul Allen formed Microsoft is now For Sale. Property offers a variety of floor plans for retail, office or warehouse uses. Condominium Association rules apply. Value priced and centrally located to NE and SE Heights and New Mexico State Fair grounds (EXPO New Mexico).

unless someone is going to sell tickets and have a tour guide at this building then it's worth no more than any other piece of property

Yeah... uh.. real estate. Woop de hoo. :|
Now if this was a news item about, oh, say, the first pre-alpha copy of MS Office 1.0 going up for sale... well, then you'd have something. Not much of something, though.

Only if said Neowin member wishes bodily harm upon Neowin admins. That is not the greatest neighborhood in Albuquerque.

"the original building where Bill Gates and Paul Allen stolen ideas and source code from others formed Microsoft is now For Sale."
