For the record, Bill and his buddy didn't even create DOS. It was created by another company, and bought by Bill and resold as his own (legally, but you get the point.) It was certainly luck to begin with, but it was parleyed into much more. When your licensing agreement with the computer manufacturer states that they will pay will pay a royalty on every computer they sell, whether it has DOS or OS/2 (remember that one?), then the computer manufacturer would be stupid to not put DOS on the computer that they are paying a royalty for anyways.
Then again, the computer manufacturer would be stupid to sign such an agreement in the first place, but what's done is done.
And I've been lurking off and on, JediSage. Nice to see I'm still noticed around here. Been busy, lately, and ready to jump back into that X0 action.
