- I knew computers before MS
-
Before MS there were plenty of computers:
TI-99/4A
Timex Sinclair
Commodore PET
C-64/128
Amiga
Apple 1/2/3
Tandy TRS-80
There were plenty of applications before MS:
Ami Pro
WordPerfect
Lotus 123
Quattro Pro
Harvard Graphics
Photoshop
Dbase
FoxPro
Groupwise
Novell was around for NOS before the Crapfest known as NT/2k/2k3/2k8.
Sorry, without MS we would have done just fine. And we'll do just fine once they are marginalized to extinction. Ask any of the giants - once you're on top the only way to go is down. With MS it will be a slow, gradual taknking but I'd bet $$ on the fact that it will happen. - Posted by: itguy08 Posted on: 10/10/08 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
