I’m not sure. I just know I never thought zucky was all that great. That story you just told reminds me of the Pirates of Silicon Valley. Gates and Jobs got a contract with IBM, but they didn’t even have an operating system.

So they talked some guy into selling them the Dos operating system - didn’t really tell him they had this big deal. Kinda stiffed him. Hence the name Pirates.

Interesting stories anyway.
