[PLUG] The history of PCs (was Windows XP warning)


Perhaps what would clear this up is to have everyone sit down and watch "Triumph of the Nerds". All of this history is hammered out in detail there, including things like Bill Gates' deal with IBM, Compaq and BIOS, DOS vs. CP/M, Lisa and the Mac.

I've got the tapes...
