Who created the Microsoft Wealth? Without Bill Gates, who would have
created personal computing that would become a world wide success.


He did not create it so much as concentrate it. Now, he's beginning
to spread it around again...but still, not creating it.


- Gates created a successful version.

nah,,, Nah... NAH ! ! !

Not even that : IBM created to broad a ranging PC
Specification for their IBM PC Hardware that enabled
'others' to "Clone" {Re-Engineer} their IBM PC Designs;
at the Assembly Component Level {Kit PCs} and
enter the PC Market Place.

? Remember the first few Years of the PC 'Clones' !

This caused a Separate need for a Parallel {Clone}
Opperating System to Run on the PC Clones.

! Hence IBM-DOS -morphed-into- MS-DOS !

There Was a Moment-In-Time -when- All Roads
Lead To BG@MS and MS Corp; and BG@MS
Capitalized On That Historical Dynamic Market
Point [.] -and-the-rest-is-history-

-where-as-
Apples History is One of Strict Hardware and Software
Control Plus Licensing of it all; and a relatively 'limited'
Market Share as a result.
-better-ain't-good-if-it-is-not-readily-available-to-all-

and that is the way 'i' see/remember it ~ RHF


Look up Xerox Palo Alto Research Center
