Helbig didn't say much about the relationship
although I got the
impression this was not something that Godbout was involved in - they
were simply using their technology. Buried in the disks I have here
are a stack of 5 1/4 floppies labeled "MS-DOS 2.0 OEM Support" No
idea the contents. (He included over 200 pieces of media - mostly 8"-
and I've yet to open any of them.") Much of the documentation appears
to be a mix of MSDOS and CPRO BIOS listings. The company was "G and
G Engineering"
I'll have to see if I have anything on it, but this would more likely
be from the PC-DOS 1.1 era. I still have my notes from working with
the OEM MS-DOS 2.0 kit; it was really the first version that had
decent OEM documentation--compared to 1.25, it was wonderful. What's
particularly funny is the stated goal of eventually merging DOS and
Xenix. File that one with Microsoft OS/2 3.0...
