Wait until you hear why Bill Gates called the company "Micro-soft"...

Gates didn't name it AFAIK. From wikipedia: "Allen came up with the original name of Micro-Soft, a portmanteau of microcomputer and software. Hyphenated in its early incarnations,"

Guess I'll have to tell it...

After Bill and Melinda Gates have their honeymoon, Melinda turns and says, "Now I know why you call it Micro-Soft".
