He suffered from infancy but it took his parents 10 years to detect dyspraxia - a brain disorder that often made his limbs shiver making it impossible to eat noodles or go for long walks.

At 8, he had mastered 'Age of Empires' and at 11, he was a gaming pro and dabbled with coding.

A big company like Google isn't made up of servers. Google runs because of image. Google has become the worlds biggest search engine because of the image of they have formed. Let's say you bombed Google’s servers (pictured). Google is a 500 billion dollar company. In a matter of days, Google would be up and running using another company's servers. In weeks, Google would have restored their own servers. Secondly, (relating to image), if Google went down for a day or two, people would not automatically switch to another search engine.
