Untrue. Gates and Allen had none to very limited access to computers and had to resort to stealing computer time from their university computer which they got in trouble for. They later had to rent computer time from a time-sharing service and mostly wrote code by hand on paper and punch tape.
That's the kind of intelligence, work, and dedication in lieu of having tools to actually achieve something. Contrast with some people today who say they can't even attend a lecture without having the highest end Macbook on which to take notes. (I'm guilty of that sometimes)
