I know this is kind of an old discussion, but what is the big deal about \ vs. / ?

All I want to
know is who decided to use \ instead of / for
directory separators (warming up the tar and holding feathers).
I use Windows and Solaris. The driectory separator drives me batty.
One thing that DOS got right is to retain the file date when
a file is copied to another directory.
