First encounter with a computer at age 33
That would be 1997. It was normal back then not know computers like we do today. It seems like an exaggerated fact. --2.245.186.183 (talk) 13:07, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
- The statement is also demonstrably false. There is ample documentation that Ma was introduced to computers and the Internet already by 1995, for example http://www.nytimes.com/2014/09/07/business/international/at-alibaba-the-founder-is-squarely-in-charge.html
- This NYT article also states that in 1996, Jack Ma started China Pages in China. By the way, his wife Zhang Ying (Cathy Zhang) is also one of the co-founders of Alibaba and its former GM, facts that might be a little more relevant to this article than that she was his college sweetheart? http://nextshark.com/13-fascinating-facts-about-the-man-behind-the-largest-ipo-in-history/ HouseOfChange (talk) 00:19, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
