Was he even a software developer or was that a lie also?
Nope. He knew how to sell his lousy Microsoft Word and PowerPoint to the federal government. Word perfect and Harvard graphics were superior programs in every way, but private companies couldn't communicate with the feds without Gates' overly complicated, illogical junk, so he won. There was a court case. Don't remember the details but at the time I thought gates was a sleaze.
Oh wow. Wordperfect! I remember that! Gates basically plagiarized DOS and Windows was originally from Xerox. My dad worked with a man who helped develop the mouse interface with Xerox Windows. That man had nothing positive to say about Bill Gates.
WordPerfect was much more powerful than Word. There were hundreds of things Word couldn't do or only did badly, but were easy in WordPerfect.
To this day, I use WordPerfect for all my writing. I've written a number of books using WordPerfect. It's great for creating a table of contents and generating an index and internal cross-references.
I loved WP miss using it, stupid companies started dumping it because they wanted a set standard in being able to share documentation enter Word, never have liked it.
Is wordperfect still a thing?
I guess it doesn't really matter since I've switched to libreoffice for personal use.
WordPerfect was amazing. As were Corel products. Don’t break my heart.
I seem to remember something about someone else's name appearing in the code comments, but the case was settled or something.
Does anyone even believe he started in his parent’s garage. Seems like all these idiots that made good all started in their parent’s garage.
And probably well funded! But the “starting from the garage” makes people believe they did it hard without help. I think Google and FB also started in the garage. It’s a convenient narrative.
...ask DARPA , they know
