![The Man Who COULD Have Been Bill Gates [Gary Kildall]](/img/tr.png)
it's been 7 years since this video. Time flies by. This is still one of the most inspiring stories.
Thank you to all of those people who have shared this video! It means a lot!
"I was too lazy to calculate so I invented a computer" lmao. last time I felt too lazy to calculate I failed an Algebra test
What's even more funny about this quote is that programmers TODAY would say they made their programs because they're too lazy too!
@@projectjt3149 no, for me it was to antagonise people.
Most of world greatest inventions were made because people were lazy an wanted easier way to do the job....
How the hell can you tell the story of computers without Alan Turing?He gave the entire theory of computation. Zuse just assembled a machine with limited capabilities,similar to abacus before him.Turing gave the theory of what that machine's full potential would be and what it would never be able to do even before a complex enough computer existed!
RIGHT!!!!
+The Den I made this comment after watching both the parts.Also ,Turing is too important to be mentioned in a flashback when the entire story is being told in chronological order.
+Anchit Sharma Alan Turing IS without a single argument the most prolific and influential person in the entire realm of computing, but still doesn't fit into the transformation of the society and human lifestyle.
Turing's work was the backbone for all of the work done by other people to bring computers into the lives of the public. It wasn't directly influential to the society, despite the degree to which he influenced computing. These videos are really more about the society than computing.
Feel what I'm saying?
But yeah, being an Alan Turing fanboy, I really would've loved more about him and his work.
Anchit Sharma Rubbish; C.E Williams thought of the digital computer; not Turing. The Germans had the first actual computer that was built, also. It was called the Z3.
An Geoffrey Dummer! (Integrated circuit)?
Hey man, the Amiga series was WAY ahead of it's time. The commodore 64 was just plain futuristic haha. I was actually thinking of doing another parallel series of the lesser known side of 70-80's PC history, but I have a lot on my plate so I can't guarantee it.
Thanks for watching though man!
Wow!!!! Quality > Quantity channel
Thanks mbond6901!
I don't know, I seem to just see things a little differently from most people and I'm simply just sharing that experience.
Thanks for watching man!
I just discovered your page today and watched a handful of videos after work. You've done a great job telling your stories with simplicity while still informing those of us with a little more than average knowledge on the subjects. Excellent work!
Watch "The pirates of silicon valley" Great movie
Thanks
Or better yet, read Fire in the Valley.
Is it on youtube
Lex Luthor of silicon valley, Bill Gates. Goddamnit you can’t find a good thing to say about that guy. There’s nobody but I don’t personally know that I hate more than Bill Gates except for Vladimir Putin.
Make a video on The Story of ColdFusion!
Your wish has been granted.
@@musiciscool1990 Lol after 5 years though..thts a long time :/
On your phone
how do you even do this? I've watched so many of your videos, and every single time im completely hyped about what you described, and at the end I think "this video is insanely well done". I rarely ever really think that, and never for the same creator, its always a one off. Except here, you make me so hyped for the technologies, stories, people that I really wouldn't care much for would it be anyone else explaining.
Truely incredible work man
Dagogo, your content is very insightful. You provide the information that not many people either know about, or have heard of it but not got clarification of it. I really enjoy this channel. I am currently 23 years old and I wish that I had found it much earlier on. I can't even remember how I stumbled upon your channel. I believe I was looking into the fall Enron and it brought me to your channel. This was last week from this comment, and since then, every day, I watch your videos. I work from home, so I routinely play one of your videos throughout the day. You're right about one thing: Technology doesn't have to be boring. In fact, it's not boring per se, but now apart of our daily lives. It is inevitable, and will always be around. It'll continue to evolve in ways we cannot even fathom. I thank you for these videos. It helps me learn a lot, things that I've thought about but never looked into. Keep it up!
Watching this you realize how much easier life is today. Something many of us including myself. Take for granted…..
Should have mentioned where the term "computer bug" came from. Computer rooms weren't as clean as they are today and real live bugs would get into the circuitry and cards of the large warm vacuum tube machines and mess with results of calculations.
Steve Steele Source? (Please)
Zoltan Csikos Some programmers and data entry people from the old Eniac era projects said this in an interview. You might be able to Google this.
@Zoltan Csikos What steve Steele said is true about the computer bugs.
Steve Steele how interesting. Thank you.
This is covered in one of the videos in Crash Course Computer Science.
This is incredible work my man. Good job. Even with a few people that should've been mentioned, you did an amazing job at telling an incredible story that most people don't even think about.
this story is kinda emotional when you think about it. The evolution of technology and how much things have changed is inspiring and humbling at the same time, i remember when i was a child how fascinating the tape of a vhs was, and how that tape can contain video, i remember how i used to send letters, i remember having to go to a phone booth to make a call....think of those times, and then think of today. times have changed alot in such a short time
Outstanding job on this cold fusion. I can only imagine the amount of research and preparation it took before even starting this. That's what separates a great TH-cam channel from mediocre. Respect
Your editing skills are amazing! I've been a long time watcher and I've always been impressed with every video you post. I'll be waiting for Part 2!
This a very good idea for show the young ppl of today what we had to go through to get here good job man.
"i'm just trying to educate people differently."
i search high and low for channels like this one, you are doing a KILLER job. i cannot thank you enough, sir.
I don't know why, but your Voice is like the most soothing thing in the world. You have a talent, with music, and also with explaining technology in a digestible way that the average person can understand. keep up with these amazing videos!
wow! the best documentary i have seen about the transition period! thumbs up! i m in mind blow. seen other boring documentaries. ur references to other things going on were also important parts of the video... it really does tell about the other background influences directing the course of humanity....
Thank you for making this video, I think it was very well made and imagine it must have taken many hours to make. I like that you made it clear a few times that you were only giving an overview of the history of computers and that many things would be left out.
I plan to use this video series in my Computer Science course that I'm developing for grade eleven students, I've used H5P to make the video interactive with questions.
Alan Mathison Turing OBE FRS (/ˈtjʊərɪŋ/; 23 June 1912 - 7 June 1954) was a pioneering British computer scientist, mathematician, logician, cryptanalyst and theoretical biologist. He was highly influential in the development of theoretical computer science, providing a formalisation of the concepts of algorithm and computation with the Turing machine, which can be considered a model of a general purpose computer.[2][3][4] Turing is widely considered to be the father of theoretical computer science and artificial intelligence.[5]
this video is the most authentic, accurate, interesting, dynamic, artistic (humanity and culture) and chronological documentary of technology and the people. i just like to thank you for such a fabulous video and above all educational.
A very smart man once said “I will always choose a lazy person to do a difficult job because a lazy person will find an easy way to do it.”
bill quotes
wow thanks for your hard work in making this video.. really enjoyed it
AWESOME STORY! Thanks for taking the time to make this great and sharing it with us all!
I keep coming back to this series , it is so inspirational and extremely well made .
I'm gonna make you famous!!! This is the most brilliant educational technology channel I've ever come across! A good history teacher always knows the marquee value of key turning points and you've highlighted them brilliantly in this video!
This is how we should all be taught!! Really good work my friend! Hats off to you!!
GREAT JOB !
GREAT COMPILE !
LOVE IT !
Thanks for making this - you are phenomenal.
Where the hell is Alan Turing?
Exactly my thought
He copied Konrad Zuse's idea and which made Britain to dub him the first man to make a electronic computer which was a WW2 propaganda. And sorry if my grammar is bad
No Turing's WWII exploits were kept secret for decades
MRQQ9 C.E Williams thought of the digital computer; not Turing.
how is it propaganda it was secret for years wiythout him and his team the allies wouldve lost the war. go research.
Amazing! This channel is just amazing!
You add poetry to technical matter. Amazing!
This is like an actual movie. Really good. Really entertaining
Came here from C4E Tech, your channel is amazing dude, loving it. really original.
HOLY SHIT, this is one of the best youtube videos ive ever seen. u are so good at creating goosebumps.
I don't know how you do it but you're videos are amazing and very educational. Wow i've actually binged on your videos for about 2 hours now. From the How Big videos to other subjects. Keep it up Brov!
Watching this for a college class. Great video, very helpful.
Sooo...this is a really slick video but there are some pretty major holes and outright factually incorrect information in it. I've just started watching your channel and have really been enjoying a lot of the videos. Normally I find what you have to say informative and especially your insight into business and economics are awesome when analyzing contemporary tech companies--but I think before doing videos like this again in the future you maybe ought to take some more time with your research.
Aside from the fact that I'm baffled how there was no coverage of Bletchley Park, Alan Turing (and let's face it--if we're going to give the space program credit for jumpstarting the demand for ICs credit has to be give to codebreaking in World War II for crossing many of the original design hurdles of creating electronic computing machines), or even the Altair (seriously--how do you do a video on the story of personal computing and leave out the first one ever to come to market?), your assertion that Konrad Zuse was the first person to think of applying binary arithmetic to mechanical computing is just straight-up wrong. The first person to suggest it and try to build a machine around the concept was Gottfriend Liebniz and he did so nearly 250 years before Zuse was born.
Zuse absolutely deserves credit for creating the first Turing-complete electro mechanical computer, but calling the use of binary calculation his innovation is oversimplification to the point of falsehood. He was making use of centuries of published mathematical theory, including Turing's.
Also: Microsoft didn't do anything illegal when they created Windows. Nor did Jobs make a mistake in approaching Microsoft to create software for the Macintosh. Jobs knew as well as anybody that beautiful hardware was useless without having software that people wanted to use to run on it. At the time, Microsoft was writing the most popular software in the world. Having them port that software over to the Mac wasn't just a good idea--it was a smart business move to compete with IBM. Why should people switch platforms if they'd be unable to use the software that the needed if they did so?
Jobs knew that the development of a GUI for PCs was inevitable, so he didn't try to prevent it. The contract between Microsoft and Apple specified a non-compete agreement through to the projected launch date of the Macintosh. Due to delays in the development and manufacturing of the Mac, that launch date was pushed back several months. Though it wasn't specified in the contract, Jobs assumed that Microsoft would honor the non-compete agreement through to the new launch date. They didn't. They developed and released windows after the original launch date specified in the contract, thus putting Windows on the market before the Macintosh.
They didn't steal from Jobs any more than he stole from Xerox. They did the exact same thing he did in putting technology for which the knew there would be demand on the market. The bone of contention between Apple and Microsoft was over when those products came to market and Jobs bristling over what he felt was a third-rate hack of software he'd spent so much time and attention cultivating.
DrexFactor Poi didn't Liebniz also work on inventing some clock-like calculator machines around 1670's?
fast forward many years... 2018 he has now 1.4m subs lol
DrexFactor Poi
Xerox invented the GUI and mouse, as we know today. They were the first to use it commercially with networked computers in their own offices, called the Alto. They were the _first_ to commercially sell a computer with a GUI, not Apple. Apple requested a tour of Xerox, as some employees were ex Xerox and arranged the tour, wanting to show Apple the wizardry Xerox had produced. Xerox agreed. Apple were knocked out. Bill Gates also toured Xerox.
Apple who were making the Apple 2 in volume negotiated with Xerox that Xerox buy $1m of Apple stock and in return they reveal their technology to Apple. In effect Apple _paid_ for the access by reduced profits, as Xerox took a cut. Zerox heads in NYC, who never understood the technology were pulling out of computing. They never understood what it would and could do wanting Apple to make the machines, as they could make them cheaper than them.
Gates just took the technology, in making Windows 2, an app sitting on top of an operating system called DOS. IFRC, it was called Windows 2 (there was no Windows 1 to make it look as if it was not the first release). How he got away with it shows something about the US legal system.
Windows 2 as an app, was on networked DOS computers I was using. No one used it, using the DOS prompt. It was regarded as something for kids. It crashed a lot. It was regarded, and rightly so, as a poor operating system, DOS, with a poor app to make it feel like and Apple but bugged to hell, so not worth using. No one trusted it. We all wanted UNIX, a proper professional operating system, and got it. BTW, Jobs used UNIX as the base for his GUI with his NeXT machines. Similar to what Gates was doing with DOS, with the GUI being an app on top, but UNIX is vastly superior to DOS. UNIX is also the base of Apple's iPhone OS and Android.
Windows was being shipped with anyone's desktop PC's, making computing easier for the 1st generation of users to use desktops en-mass. It was appalling and constantly crashed.
Apple's offer was vastly superior being a proper _integrated_ operating system, not just an app sitting on top of an operating system. But their hardware and software were all in one expensive package. With DOS/Windows, DOS applications, of which there was a massive amount on the market, could be run by clicking a Windows app icon.
Windows was an *app* sitting on top of an operating system, DOS, sending commands to DOS underneath. In interface with the user who thought they were on an Zeroz/Apple type of machine.
Windows never became a proper operating system, being just an app, until DOS was fully eliminated, which took about 15 years - and in that 15 years still bugged to hell and a poor product. How Microsoft became a giant is purely marketing, as technology-wise they had little innovation, if any at all. The same could be said of Apple, but they were better engineers than Microsoft producing the hardware and a proper GUI operating system to match.
Hello, Apple fanboy.
Let's see the inaccuracies:
1. There was a Windows 1.0.
2. You didn't mention Windows 3.x. It was also an app running on top of DOS but it was almost an OS of its own (it could utilize virtual memory, something that DOS wasn't aware of).
3. You can't compare UNIX to DOS. The former was made for networked business use and the latter for single user PCs.
4. iOS is mostly based on BSD, not Unix. Also, Android is based on Linux.
5. Apple's OS was far from being "superior". The OS itself had such a terrible memory management that the user had to restart the computer quite often, in order to release the memory taken by previous programs.
DrexFactor Poi hi
U all r genius
Mind blowing video!!! This should be made compulsory to all students on schools and colleges. Great work man!
What a time to be alive.
Great job on this mini-documentary. Awesome stuff!
Lots of hype in the video. Alan Turing, Bell Labs, C/Unix along with very many other crucial things were not even mentioned.
Why would Bell be crucial for the development of computers?
@@kkon5ti -- Bell Labs - IIRC - started "System V" (system 5?) which then became a Unix or maybe even Unix/BSD type OS. This is, in part what, Apple/NeXT used in the mid 90's and was the basis for all computers and phones and even some of the iPods (iirc, the early iPods used a different system).
BSD Unix is similar to Linux, yet the licensing is different. You can download Darwin (the kernel macOS is based off of), for free. This does not have all the Apple addins (iTunes, QuickTime, Quartz display, etc..) yet it has a lot.
Great video! However, in an update video, please mention two important influencers (besides Alan Turing):
* John von Neuman - first to formulate the design of a digital computer utilizing binary logic and shared program/data in memory.
* Robert Noyce / Intel - invention of the integrated circuit.
I feel you deserve a TV show on the History Channel or some similar station. Your information is clean and seems extremely accurate. Your documentary style videos are very intriguing and easy to watch. Time literally flies watching your productions. I enjoying learning from your channel.Thanks for creating these videos, you're Awesome!
This video is 9yo and still is one of my favorite videos in the whole internet!
I watched to the end because i love computing and this is a really well made video! Thanks and i will be watching part two as soon as i come back from the meeting about tech in teaching. Glad i found your channel.
you deserve over 9m!!! subs
Still not there after 7 years. :(
Hi Siam alam
People like mr beast more
That hilarious clip is prophetic when you look at the current reaction to AI
It's an understatement to say that you understated the role Xerox played: Wozniak and Jobs had no "Apple" computer until Xerox allowed them access to its computer and engineers that developed the computer the Apple was based on. No two guys had the knowledge, the time, the money, nor the intelligence to invent what Xerox and its hundreds of engineers created!
Great video why people who are responsible for what we enjoy aren't heroes is tragic
This video along with many others are sooo good.. well done.. These videos should in tv or something
Those who give voice for Alan Turing,
I love you all 🖤🖤🖤
this is basically like a history subject channel. love it ❤️
i LOVE your channels and stories Cold Fusion keep up th e good work
list the tracks you use in your videos more often! Im always hearing a song in your videos and having to go on a quest to find out what it is.
I think Alan Turing could have had a mention. Other than that this was an amazing video and i could see you put a lot of hard work into this. thankyou .. subscribed
England seems to have been left out for some reason.
Also as he was why Apple got its name !!!!!
@@yetifanuk Steve Jobs himself actually came out and said that wasn't true.
His videos have always been incredible. Damn this man deserves WAY more than 1mil subs.
This Was the Best Yet! on to part 2!
Watching that 32 GB microsd example in 2019 looks so funny 😜
Wow! my face just melted! freaking incredible work! Holy F! One of the best videos i've ever watched.
man a decade later and this still one of like my top 5 or hell maybe even top 3 vids on this site this is SO well made
This is one of the best videos explaining computer history in a short Summary, which is extremely hard to do. Loved watching this video. BEST OF LUCK to your channel. Keep up the good work. Content is still the king, be it on paper or books or a very well explained video documentary. God bless 🙏🏻
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinod_Dham > Vinod Dham (Gurmukhi: ਵਿਨੋਦ ਧਾਮ) is an inventor, entrepreneur and venture capitalist. He is popularly known as the Father of the Pentium chip, for his contribution to the development of highly successful Pentium processors from Intel.[2][3][4] He is a mentor, advisor and investor; and sits on the boards of many companies including promising startups funded through his India based fund - Indo US Venture Partners,[5] where he is the founding Managing Director.
Vinod Dham’s accomplishment as the “Father of Pentium” and as an Indian-American technology pioneer from Silicon Valley, is being celebrated at a first-ever exhibition on South Asians in the National Museum of Natural History at the storied Smithsonian in Washington DC, highlighting Indian-Americans who have helped shape America ColdfusTion
RAJ JADHAV Agreed
how did this turn into an apple documentary
MrSpiderman1321 Because Steve Jobs was the visionary who drove innovation at Apple and de industry always followed!
Because hes the reason Microsoft ad all other big computer companies exist today.
***** LOL nice b8 m8
MrSpiderman1321 Nope m8.
MrSpiderman1321 Because the uploader is an Apple fanboy. Which is sad, I was enjoying the video before that part.
This is one of my most favourite channels
What an amazing channel! I loved the documentary
2013 - 32Gb wow. amazing.
2019 - Sandisk : "hold my msdcard". Boom 1Tb.
SerpentInside 2026: boom 32 pb
Why? Why don't you have much more subscribers it's just not fair
same thought here....the most amazing channel i ever subscibed! :)
Actually true.
exactly! this video has become one of my favorites, and to imagine that this is just the first part. ColdfusTion makes great content. I feel like we need to be the one doing something here
said the same thing, i've noticed that the society today does't want anything educational anymore, and watching this i proved a friend of mine at works point that Xerox did in fact make the first PC...i always assumed wrong.
I think people who like his videos should encourage others to see them because even I feel he's doing a great job... We should contribute to community building..
My uncle bought one of the first privately owned mainframes in Norway, in the 60's, when he was in his early 20's. Soon he was rich beyond his wildest dreams from customers among the biggest institutions and companies in the country, such as the Ford Motor Company. When the PC hit the market in the 80's, his business started to struggle however, and he had to scale back and change his operation.
this really IS the greatest story ever told. Thanks for the great video.
Finished whatching ten video.
Looked in my hand.
OH MY GOD I HAVE A BEAST OF A MACHINE IN MY HAND AND I DIDN'T KNOW!
I love this video!
Form minute 0:00 to the end, awesome music and content!!
Excellent video wow was very professional.
I need to know what song plays at 0:20 - 1:25 it's amazing!
23:05 Thinnen - Struck
Your Best Video Yet! Excellent Work. You will go down in history for explaining life changing historical events of modern technology. Love your work.
This video was awesome. Great job on all the research and footage .
You start nicely and end up making the video to an apple commercial
How in the world is that what you heard? I hate, HATE apple. But geez man!!
What a nice video ! Keep it up, thank you for the nice refreshment :)
Hey gogo, Every video you make is awsome and you do so much hard work making videos. Its a shame that this video has only 10,000 likes. It should be way much more than that. Considering people who only test the phones, they just talk about the phone what is good what is not and get more than 20 even 30 thousand likes. YOU DESERVE WAY MORE.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
definitely my favorite channel
You didn't mention Alan Turing in the video. 😣
he didn't mention ada lovelace either, what's your point
plenty of people weren't mentioned, and one entire nation was mentioned as if they aren't part of human world
alan turing was actually creator of the first computer, if i'm not mistaken....
they also do not mention the Olivetti programma 101
alan turing was creater of the first artificial intelligence computer
obviouslty he was either gay or british
The Best ever Tech History video I've ever watched in TH-cam.
The music at the ending was sick!!
Your videos have so much quality!!!!!
More people like pew die pie than this....
SAD.
Why World WHY!
Those were my exact thoughts while watching this
Myo swe well i like both of these channels
your argument is invalid!
vtgandalf1 I said MORE people like pew die pie.
You like both ,so how does it my statement invalid?
Myo swe Acceptance lag
Myo swe People simply have different taste.
The whole story of development in Computers is so perfectly compacted in this video. Just loved it♥️
That early age of developing technology feels very different, I've always wanted to live in that age. Today's era has got quite stable and feels numb🥲
2000's the jobs revenge finally came !
JACK DOLAH Only because of Ballmer's lack of leadership. Microsoft had smartphones and tablets on the market years before Apple, but they didn't do anything with it. If they had refined the designs, they would probably own mobile too. Besides, Android basically owns mobile now, which is owned by Google. Apple has very little market share in mobile. They just make a lot of money from it because of their idiotic margins.
@@HTHAMMACK1 I agree Microsoft got an idiot for a CEO. Despite everything they didn't see potential or utilized it.
Loved it!!! You can really see how hard you work on these videos
Holy guacamole, can’t believe this was posted 7yrs ago. I remember watching this then about a month after it was posted.
Unfortunate that Zuse is presented as the inventor of binary calulation. The same as been done earlier in the form of 4 species calculation machines (+, -, *, /) and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibnitz has been the genius who invented/found it. And it is simply not possible to tell the story of computers without talking about Alan Turing.
So i have to ask where is dennis ritchie and ken thopson or allan turring?
Im sadden that this video has so much time on a poser like steve jobs. -_-
or the 200 years of theretical math coming before all of this...
Danni jensen well the polite answer to this would be that the title of the video is "death of PC". dennis ritchie, ken thompson, allan turring were greatest of greats, but they were (according to me), no related to PC (Personal Computer) directly. may be this is the reason why mr. coldfustion had omitted them. :)
taj nijjar thats a fair point but what about all the mathematicians that really made all the theory.
Ada lovelace, george boole and a few other really really means more for computering than steve jobs ever did or ever will :P
Danni jensen ur point is also valid. but the thing again comes down to the point that this is a video about personal computers.despite the fact that the contribution of these great mathematicians is beyond any doubt, they were not directly related to personal computers. yes u r also right that these people mean a lot in the field of computing.
i think that instead of carrying this discussion forward, i should leave this question to be answered by ColdfusTion . i think he would be the better person at answering this question than me. tc
taj nijjar even from a personal computer point of view apple didten mean that much :P
the TRS-80 sold more and is technical older than any apple product and 10 times as used at home as well >.<
Commadore sold homecomputers before apple was even created not one word about them!
but you give credits to a guy who created the user interface? >.< since home computering didten excist without the user interface? poor Dos got deleted from history :(
And i agree he should but you did :p
Danni jensen lol.... it seems like my knowledge is too little in front of ur knowledge....
Can't wait for the part 2's and onward....
I remember learning about most of these things in 7th grade and that was like 2007. Loved the video bro.
Err so many errors here.
Like no mention of Alan Turing or how intel did not make the first microprocessor (though it made the first commercially successful microprocessor but even thats up to debate)
Agreed. Overall, I like these videos, but they are filled with incorrect claims and make conclusions that are not supported with facts. There are so many other factors that went into this history that were never mentioned and much of what was mentioned was not understood well by the author. Still, this is a reasonable starting point for those interested in the topics presented. I would just caution against using any of this material as the basis of fact.
@KRYMauL Bell Labs made the first transistor. I previously worked in the same building as that historic event years ago. As for the microprocessor, that is credited to Intel. The first CPU was the Intel 4004 released by Intel in 1971. Federico Faggin was the lead designer of the first commercial CPU.
Who is watching in 2019
An interesting fact: the teaching of "integers" was brought into grade school in America after the Spunik launched. The government wanted every American to be capable at writing computer programs when they grow up.
so much info you put in this video, you summed up so well..... the last few seconds where you showed all things in jiffy, like the xerox computer, that visionary guy,ipods. I mean I cant explain through words. Just put it in a way that really informative yet entertaining video it is, at the same time not only thank you but thanks to those great music in the background which made it more palatable. Really this is what life is .... like a recipe, to make your kid eat good stuff you choose some good spices...... I can keep on writing on this lets conclude whith, Thank You.
Great story telling and video mix overall but the end was really biased towards Apple/Jobs. You also missed the point with Gates writing the BASIC interpreter for the Altair (basically the first PC on the market) which is what helped him start Microsoft with Paul Allen. Why do you make the release of Windows as a bad thing? It helped the widespread adoption of PCs.
Realistically, Windows was always a hack. Microsoft did nothing to pioneer technology. They just made it easy for the masses to get “good enough” technology at a low price.... by letting the OEMs compete in a race to the bottom. Microsoft made a fortune, but in the grand scheme of things, they’ve contributed next to nothing. They copy others well and bundle tech in a way to best their competitors. Xerox, Apple, IBM, etc. were the giants that pushed technology further.
Started out great! Lost interest, when you somehow changed the focus from the computers to how Apple got owned. The last part of the video was not really all that relevant...
Thanks for the comment, but I'd have to disagree. The whole Apple Vs Microsoft battle was by far the biggest thing to happen in the PC market throughout the mid-late 80's and on into the early 90's. It changed the landscape up until the mid 2000's when Mac's gained popularity once again after the introduction of the iPod (watch Part II to actually see how it all fits together).
Each to his own as they say.
Actually if you think about it... you will realize that role in the computer industry actually ended after they introduced the PC to the public widely... after that their sales struggled too much to say, that they made any impact after that. To sum up... they introduced it - other companies and Microsoft made it mainstream.
ColdfusTion Yes, it was, but your view is clearly *incredibly* biased towards Steve Jobs/Apple...
The way you present things makes Bill Gates look like an asshole, which he isn't.
+Vel0city well he is kinda...
+undeadelite !
Great history very well explained! Great job mate!
Thank you so much, it was so interesting! Thank you for the gift!
Best wishes!!!!
