People of a certain vintage may remember that Micro$oft computers were initially marketed with an interface called MS DOS. This was a command line program, and once you got used to it, it was really cool. DOS still exists, Windows runs on top of it, but it has been deprecated to such a degree that only people with an intimate knowledge of computing now use it. For example, the attrib command is long gone.
Micro$oft’'s main rival has always been Apple, which pioneered the graphical user interface, and because most people use computers as a means to an end rather than objects of affection, it was inevitable that Micro$oft would move towards a GUI as well. Dragging and dropping a file in the recycle bin is a lot more instinctive than del C:\acc1986\thisfile*.doc
DOS filenames were limited to 8 characters plus a 3 character extension; now you can give files lengthy, meaningful names. The first version of Windows was called Windows 1.0; released in November 1985, it was followed in quick succession by versions 1.01, 1.02, 1.03 and 1.04. In November 1987, Windows 2.0 appeared, then Windows 3.0 followed by Windows. 3.1. This latter had a very good feel to it, and for most home users at the time, was ideal, but the Internet then social media required faster chips, bigger drives, more memory, more power. If you are under fifty and are not familiar with the history of home computing, the following statement will probably astound you.
On February 5, 1988, an advertisement for Amstrad computers appeared on page 27 of the London Times. Fitted with a 20Mb (twenty megabyte) hard disk, mono £649; colour £799. Both were ex – presumably ex VAT.
Now, if you have a 200Gb hard disk, you can consider yourself a poor relation.

Readers can research the Talpiot archives to learn how Microsoft was handed over to Israel.
There is a lot more where all that came from because Epstein-influenced Billy likes change:
Nothing stays the same does it Billy?
