Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer once filmed a parody of the Austin Powers movie

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates and former CEO Stebe Ballmer have shot a short video in the past that introduces a parody of the Austin Powers movie.

The video was posted on YouTube in 2009, and recently caught the attention of BNN Bloomberg presenter Jon Erlichman. The video was probably shot for internal use during Ballmer's 14-year career as a Microsoft CEO beginning in 2000.

Gates is in the role of Austin Powers, while Ballmer plays Dr. Evila.

There are many comedic footage of Gates and Ballmer created during their collaboration with Microsoft.
