I've seen a television documentry which explanied just how Bill got where
he is today, his Windows was (some say stolen) from Mac anyway.
When Bill was still in dipers there were other operating systems which had
multitasking, GUi's and networking, all Bill has done is buy the competition
out, and calls whatever he brought (or stole as some say) Windows.
BTW; my "dipers" expression is meant to be humourous, just like the pie in
the face that Bill got in Brussels a while ago.
All i can say is, if i had so much money then i would "possably" do the
same as Bill does, thats buissness.
There is one thing that DOS or even Bill Gates cant boast about, Linux is
the only operating system in the world which "can boast" about,
AX25 support in the operating system itself.
Now there's something to be proud of, Bill, !!!.
Have a good one and 73's.
