Yes, they wrote the original DOS for the Apple II. Then went on to
do Atari BASIC and Atari DOS and many other pieces of software
for Atari. I also have a copy of CP/A+ which is an Apple II OS they
wrote which is very similar to their OS/A+ for the Atari. I've always
had a thing for collecting odd-ball operating systems.
