So I was talking to my friend who knows a lot about Windows and computers etc. He explained something to me that I got lost in about some code you can still type to-this-day into even windows 7 and it will do a certain function.
The catch is that this string that you enter must end in a dollar sign and he said that Bill Gates still cannot tell you exactly why it must end in a dollar sign. This is because he doesn't know why because DOS was stolen from Gary Kildall of Digital Research. The original and FIRST home PC OS was CP/M.

Read the article. To this day, Window's core is still based on CP/M which Bill stole years ago. If Caldera Inc. would've settled for royalties including future Windows versions, they would've been set for life!
So for all those documentaries out there of how Bill Gates is the best businessman in history, he boils down to nothing else but a mere common thief. Interesting.
