Explanation

The timeline (Stanford 1934, MIT 1936, Stanford 1939, founding January 1, 1939) and the electrical engineering background match William Hewlett (Stanford BS 1934, MIT MS 1936). He co-founded Hewlett-Packard (HP) with David Packard in 1939. Google, Microsoft, and Apple founders have completely different timelines.
