Here's a pretty cool article from Xconomy:

http://www.xconomy.com/seattle/2009/03/12/new-microsoft-board-member-maria-klawe-on-bill-gates-college-students-and-seattle-innovation/

A few sentences that jumped out at me:

"My son is constantly trying to get me to play what he thinks are interesting games, like Prince of Persia 2008. He said, ‘Mom, this is such a forgiving and easy game.’ I actually finished it-it was good except for the fighting parts."

"Then Steve Ballmer’s son was visiting Pomona [College], so Steve made an appointment to talk with me."

[begin slashdot-level-IQ] man, he better not throw any chairs through any of their pretty stained glass![end slashdot]
