MS-DOS 1.0/1.1

so did this very card get incorporated into the box that became knows as the Seattle Gazelle? There's information on the net that states he wrote DOS on the Gazelle (often of dubious value...in case you weren't aware ;). Just how much use was made of IBMs ROM BASIC (or BASICs for that matter - they were included in all the PS/2s, and probably even later models. Yeah, schools and stuph made use of built in BASICs, and even utilized cassettes for storage (I learned, though I use the term loosely, BASIC programming on the Atari 400, which sported a membrane keyboard...ugh). But I'm not aware of too many early IBM branded PCs made their way into schools (more so possibly by the PS/2 period). But who the heck made any serious use of ROM based BASIC in the *pseudo* 16 bit era and beyond? Though IBM utilized MS to write early compilers for it's stuph, IBM's Professional FORTRAN was written by Ryan-McFarland. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
