I forgot to mention in my previous post, here's an interview where Gates
talks about IMSAI, Altair and some other early small systems (no bashing).
Also some background on development of the MS BASICs and various other MS
products. This is one article with a list of links into several different
sections, but you can pick out the interesting stuff real easily.
