I'm not sure why people think Billy is so smart.

He low-balled a price on existing code, and ported it to a PC for IBM. He only did that because his mom was a secretary to an IBM exec and he had an inside track.

Since that first step, he's hired smart people, but he hasn't done any of the work.

He actually copied CPM and I’m not sure he even changed anything. Maybe cosmetics. Then his mom got the contract. What a loser. bought lots of good software. put his name on it and then screwed it up.
