CNN's new series i-List takes you to a different country each month. In May, we visit Macedonia focusing on changes shaping the country's economy, culture and its social fabric.

Skopje, Macedonia (CNN) -- A colorful mural runs along the outside the Blaze Koneski public school in Macedonia, but it's been vandalized by graffiti artists who spray their tags all over the school.

There are metal bars on the windows and the building itself is run down and dilapidated. We are here to interview a "child prodigy" for CNN's i-List Macedonia.

Marco Calasan is the youngest Microsoft systems engineer in the world, holds four Microsoft certificates and has written a 312-page book on Microsoft's Windows 7.

As we enter the classroom a young boy with a warm smile and dark, curly shoulder length hair pulled back in a ponytail, extends his hand and introduces himself.

Marco is just nine years old; he's an only child and a computer genius. He takes us on a tour of the school computer lab, as if it were his home. Marco only lives across the road but spends endless hours in here working away each day, well and truly after the school bell has rung.

Wow, that little guy sure is something.
 
That's not a he..
Is it?

Looks like a she ._.
And DAMN!
I just wish I was super-intelligent =/
 
Looks like a she ._.

At first glance, but if you analyze the build of the face a bit closer...

Anyway, either this kid will make lots and lots of money or be locked in the Microsoft dungeons for almost nothing.

Shame his mother has cancer though.
 
He'd/She'd better get paid well.
Why isn't Microsoft doing anything to help the mom? o.0

If she dies, the kid will get traumatized and a prodigy will be lost.
 
True. For Microsoft this little boy genious might also pose a very special marketing opportunity. (kinda tired of seeing Ballmer wacking around)
 
"At Microsoft, we care for our employees and their family's well-being!"
"Come support us, because we care!"
 
He's gonna' need a lot of it to save his mom, imo =/
Damn Microsoft, give him a 3months advance on his pay already so he can spend it on his mom's healthcare.
 
He'll create a new programming language where we can put boner arrays in our anal loops.
