Microsoft plans to increase its research and development budget by 20 percent and hire 5,000 new workers in the coming year, Chairman Bill Gates said on Thursday.

"Because of our optimism (over) what the software can do in the decade ahead, we are increasing our investments," Gates said. Microsoft's employee base is "50,000 strong and growing," he said. | ||
