Gates recognizes that our schools aren’t producing people he would consider hiring. Its in his own self interest that the schools do better.

That presumes that the demand isn't already being distorted by a supply of guest workers. It may make him feel good, but it won't do any good if people see that it is a losing proposition to go in a field that sends more to guest workers than not. If Gates wants more people in the US to take up high-skill fields, a top interest would be to remove the distortions related to guest workers.
His (or Ballmer's) interest(on the large scale) is having the least free, lowest cost hire that can fulfill the demands of the company. Microsoft doesn't care how well educated they are as long as they follow that trend on the large scale.
