I know it's relevant cause it's about Microsoft but it's still funny to see a headline refer to him as just "Windows 95 chime composer Brian Eno"
What else is he known for?
Denouncing Microsoft.
Oh, and coining the term Ambient Music, and being an electronic music pioneer. ...Nothing as historic as composing a chime sound for windows, once, however.
