I found the most interesting article on a web site about Gary Kildall, and
that CP/M could have possibly been our main stream OS.. How could so many
great ideas get lost in the big shuffle..?
I know everyone has been talking about GUI's, and according to this article
Digital Research did alot of work in this area.
Also Digital Research back in 1989 released a very good DOS called DRDOS, I
used this for awhile back in 1990 and was very impressed with its features,
then MS came out with a clone of it called MSDOS ver 6.0.. I still own
several original copies of DRDOS in unopened packages..
Check out this article its very interesting:

Brings me to a question does anyone have a copy of the original DOS Version
1.0 ?
I would love to load this on one of my old XT's ..
