Gabe Newell In His First Year Of High School

It’s only his first year, that’s why the Valve co-founder and boss hasn’t yet been voted Most Likely to Succeed.

Spied by Redditor electrifuzz in his father’s yearbook from Davis (Calif.) Senior High.

I discovered today that Gabe Newell went to the same high school at the same time as my dad. They didn’t know each other, but I found him in his yearbook as a freshman! [Reddit]

      His stock is worth in the region of 2 - 3 billion, depending on what the market is doing.

    Gabe rules. I through at least $50 at him during the summer sale. So excited about Steam's Linux client. It's the final nail in Windows coffin. Microsoft's touch screen PCs OS ala Windows 8... I'd rather die ;)
