Sorry but Microsoft was never registered as "Microcomputer Software" it was however first registered as MicroSoft or Micro-Soft which was a combination of the two. The name Microsoft didn't become a registered trademark until 1976. It was founded in 1975 by Bill Gates and Paul Allen in order to develop and sell BASIC programs / interpreters for other companies IIRC.
