Some dev: should we delete this windows 95 stuff finally?

Another dev: no just reskin it 😂

M$ was never about building high quality software. It started off as a powerful legal force, just look up Billy's dad. They cannibalized many great ideas from other small companies trying to get a start. It was never about the people or the software. It was about billy and his legal power and profit.

Yep, I didn't know his dad played a part though, that's interesting.

Be sure to check out how his mom helped him get mainframe time in school when she was a teacher. Plus how he was allowed to sell that time for favors and profit from it.

Could you share some sources? Would like to see.

He talks about it in some of his books. Can't remember which one at the moment, will see if I can find it.
