To the best of my knowledge, he began his role change in 2008 when he left as chairman of Microsoft to devote his time to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. His loss was perceived as "symbolic" since he'd been downsizing his activities since 2006. So basically, the transition has taken place, smoothly, and Bill is now off to devote his energy to philanthropy. Hope this helps!

Plus, he gotta watch all the zillions he donated thru the... (that´s right )....Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (his foundation). He needs to kept track to all the money he "donated on philanthropy"...

¿Are you kidding me?

According to an article that I've read in newsweek.com, these are the things that happened when Bill Gates left Microsoft and left Steve Ballmer in charge to replace him.

The company became more timid because it was distracted by antitrust regulators. Microsoft slowed down and was left by others who have gained more sped, Microsoft's stock has dropped to nearly 50%.

You can read the full article at the source.
