Even still, it's extremely unlikely. Unethical as he was, there's little doubt that Gates has an extremely good understanding of computers. And back then, memory limits were extremely tight and programmers ran into them all the time. Graphics and sound were a serious challenge in the DOS era.
Heck, Gates probably remembered the times where a framebuffer was discussed as a theoretical construct, that would be useful if only one could have enough memory to implement one! And at 320x200, that's 10% of your 640K.
