    As much as I’m a proud Linux user and Microsoft aren’t at all in line with my values, I upvoted as this is massively relevant to the world of retro computing, and I found it interesting. :)

    Guessing a lot of folks will have reflexively downvoted based on the red rag that is the word Microsoft, but nice to read historical stuff like this, thank you for sharing it! :)

    I hate Microsoft but that doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate their past contributions to the history of computing

    Why even downvote a post by the great Anatoly Shashkyn? This is precisely the kind of content I want to see more of in this community!

    It’s just the first page of the printout, and a 94 MB PDF.

    Fraud Gates writing more fake history.

    Praising Steve Ballmer is hillarious.
