BTW: your original statement was 'Remember that in effect MS-DOS was an unlicensed copy of Digital Research's CP/M and particularly CP/M-86.'
by TK Chia's remark, CP/M-86 didn't even exist yet when he wrote QDOS. and QDOS couldn't compete with CP/M as CP/M doesn't run on 8088. > I still maintain there is a bit of a difference between copying a > rival's API in order to launch a competing product, and copying a > rival's API in order to do something completely different with it. so you claim that DRDOS 3.31 was an unlicensed copy of MSDOS 3.x ? few people would agree with you on that.
