Reminder that these two are the ones responsible of today's faggots that use Windows.

They are the sole responsible evil for creating the MS-DOS bloatware that would later evolve into its Windows form.

Yeah Based?

Yes, but Apple turned into an abomination too, and I'm sure Atari OS and Amiga OS would also have turned into diarrhea if they had survived. As for Linux, it has a lot of flaws that will just never be fixed, and its ass became practically as fat as Windows. Everything must turn into shit in this era.

Yes, had the world instead settled on the OS of a fag who got murdered by bikers for wearing the wrong leathers, things would have been far better.

is this a unisys dell thread?

They also stole CP/M from Gary Kildall. You cannot invent or develop anything without it getting stolen by the government (IBM, CIA, the congress in Washington etc.).

And bloated it to kingdom come after stealing it. 512k minimum requirement for DOS 6.22 is outrageous.

Gary skipped the meeting with IBM, sending his wife in his place while he spent the day flying his private airplane. She fucked up the negotiations. Even with that, CP/M was available from IBM along side with Microsoft's PCDOS. Stupid thing is that due to demands from the Kildalls for higher royalties, the CP/M option was several extra hundred dollars so most customers went with the less expensive PCDOS option. Because of the huge difference in sales, IBM eventually made PCDOS the standard option and CP/M a special customization.
While generally an affable guy on the Computer Chronicles, Gary had a prickly personality that eventually got him killed when he mouthed off at a motorcycle gang about their shit taste in bikes. In business, that personality often cost him deals. Gates, being a little beta fag, was far easier to deal with at that time. But like most little beta fags, he didn't know how to use power ethically, so when Microsoft became a success, he turned into a little tyrant. Even today he acts like a beta fag. No amount of money can change that (just look at Elon Musk, who was bullied as a kid and still acts like a fag when he gets any power).
