"People will say a lot of things about me when I die, but I am determined that ‘he died rich' will not be one of them," said Gates. "There are too many urgent problems to solve for me to hold onto resources that could be used to help people."
The plan is to distribute up to 99% of his total net worth by December 31st, 2045, which is when the Gates Foundation will be closed down. The total amount given away through the Foundation is expected to be around $200 billion over the next 20 years when you include his personal wealth, the Foundation's existing endowment, and earnings from ongoing business investments. That money will be spent on various charitable projects around the world.
On Bloomberg's list of the world's richest billionaires, Bill Gates currently ranks in 5th place with an estimated net worth of $108 billion.

The massive 18-inch PureSight display is something to behold, offering up to either 4K resolution in traditional 2D or 2K resolution in glasses-free 3D. The 3D effect is achieved using eye-tracking tech and a clever lens system, no headset or special 3D glasses needed! Lenovo's AI-powered 3D Studio also supports various file formats as well as creation apps, allowing you to preview your work in 3D.
Underneath the hood, you're looking at serious firepower! It comes with an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor, a cutting-edge Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 GPU, up to 192GB of DDR5 RAM, and up to 8TB of SSD storage. That's a crazy amount of power and space, which is ideal for giant game builds and creative assets. AI is a big part of the experience, too. AI features like Game Coach and Game Clip Master help you improve your gaming skills and create shareable content on social media.
To round it all off, the Legion 9i's lid is made of forged carbon fiber, so every machine has its own unique cosmetic pattern. Lenovo's also offering the Legion 18 Armored Backpack II to keep your gear safe while you're traveling.
The Lenovo Legion 9i is expected to launch this fall. Pricing will be announced closer to launch.

It's not the first time we've covered a deal for this exact laptop, and it's easy to see why. The LOQ 15IRX9 has a solid configuration with a decent retail price, but it's a real winner when it's steeply discounted. This is a 15.6-inch laptop with a beautiful IPS display, a 1080p resolution that looks great, and a 144Hz refresh rate that's necessary for a smooth, immersive gaming experience at higher frame rates.
And this laptop will be able to push those higher frame rates—at least on modest game settings—thanks to the included GeForce RTX 4060 graphics card. This is a fantastic laptop GPU if price-performance is your main concern, and it's not common to see it in laptops in this price range. On top of that, you get an Intel Core i5 CPU, 16GB of DDR5 RAM, and an adequate 512GB SSD. These specs are far from top-of-the-line, but they're enough for Windows 11 and daily operation without choking.
The Lenovo LOQ 15IRX9 is an affordable gaming laptop option, especially when it's on sale for just $849. That said, if you're willing to spend more for something that's crème de la crème, check out our picks for the best laptops as chosen by our experts.

Add Microsoft's Surface lineup to the list of gear that now costs more. XDA first spotted price hikes of around 20 percent for most existing models. The damage applies to the Surface Laptop and Surface Pro lines, as well as power bricks.
The starting prices of the 13.8-inch Surface Laptop and 13-inch Surface Pro increased from $1,000 to $1,200. Of course, the new devices Microsoft launched on Tuesday stand pat. (And their curiously high prices now make more sense.) Only the 15-inch Surface Laptop was spared, sticking to its original $1,300.
Even accessories like power supplies are part of the fun. The 65W Surface power supply shot up from $90 to $120, and the 127W variant went from $125 to $175.
PCMag notes that retail partners like Best Buy and Amazon still show the original prices. So, if you were considering a new Surface, that's a good place to start.
The move follows last week's Xbox price i

Google is once again crossing the great divide between rival tech giants, at least with artificial intelligence. The company has launched a dedicated iPad app for its Gemini AI assistant. In addition to natively running on Apple hardware, Gemini's iPad app can take advantage of the tablet's split view, so that the AI assistant is open on the screen at the same time as another program for easier use. The app is available today from the App Store in all countries where Gemini is currently available.
Gemini has been a huge focus for Google's recent announcements as it works to put its service in front of more and more potential users. iPhones got their first native Gemini app last November. The company recently introduced a program for children to explore the AI assistant and it opened the Deep Research capability to all Gemini users. With Google I/O 2025 right around the corner, it's a safe bet that we'll be hearing about more features and integrations for the

Microsoft launched a new 13-inch Surface Laptop for as low as $899.99 and a 12-inch Surface Pro for $799.99. The two devices are just a tad smaller than the existing Surface Laptop and Surface Pro and slightly cheaper as well: the base prices of the existing, older Surface Laptop 7th Edition and the Surface Pro 11th Edition are $999.
As reported by XDA Developers, Microsoft has now widened the pricing gap, implementing a $200 difference between the smaller Surface Pro and Laptop and the existing models from May 2024. But that's not precisely true, either.
Instead, Microsoft has eliminated the lowest-priced 13.8-inch Surface Laptop offering from its website. Last May, you could buy a 13.8-inch Surface Laptop, in Platinum, with 16GB of RAM and 256GB of SSD storage, for $999, according to the price list Microsoft provided us. Now, the cheapest 13.8-inch Surface Laptop is a Black model but with 16GB of RAM and a larger 512GB SSD instead, with an MSRP of $1,199.99 — but one of those models, too, has been marked down to a discounted $1,031.47. (Microsoft sometimes offers educational or military discounts, bu
