Bill Gates, someone who stole somebody’s idea and took credit for it? To be announced...? Why ABC, you can’t get John McCain to come on? Or any other RINO?
I disagree that he "stole" ideas. In many cases he bought them, but I don't believe he ever "stole" items. A major contemporary to Gate's DOS (disc operating system was IBM's JCL (job control language). JCL was a nightmare. It was case sensitive, where a command like "Copy" was not recognized the same as "copy". In addition, JCL contained numerous, long, case sensitive acronyms. Learning them took months of painful memorization. Numerous capital letters could appear anywhere in the string, making typing arduous. Only a few, usually weird, gurus could become accomplished at this.
Gate's DOS simplified this. DOS used simple English words, insensitivity to case, and short instructions. An ordinary mortal could use DOS after a few minutes of coaching.
In addition, numerous low cost improvements appeared on the market shortly after each new DOS release was announced. Gates would immediately buy them, and incorporate them in the next version, WITHOUT A PRICE INCREASE. This made each new offering of DOS something users eagerly paid for. The guy was a brilliant marketer, not a thief.
His brilliance dimmed considerably with the introduction of Windows, however.
