Don't tell the others, but many years ago I worked on the original version of DOS when Microsoft was very tiny. Mr Rich was simply "Bill" back then. Microsoft was simply "broke" back then.

I worked on WordStar, CalcStar, MergeStar and a load of other CP/M programs which I ported across for the first version of DOS, namely V1.17. In those days we were spolied with dual floppy disks which had the fabulous capacity of 160K each.

The PC had 32K of RAM. Luxury indeed.

But like I say, this is a secret of course. Only you, me and my daffodil know about this.

Although his name is William... :p Hmm i think you just told everyone. ;)

Nah, nobody but me, you, Sadsid, the daffodils, geramiums and pinapples read this thread. Oh yes, and [SJ]Stein, Agent|Austin and all the Venusians and their masters, the baked beans.

But as all of you are as mad as me, you are just imagining this conversation within your delirium.
