I am returned from vacation. This is your yearly reminder that it is your solemn duty to relish updating copyrights in source files as you touch them (change your "2023" copyrights to "2023-2024" and bump those other copyrights ending in "-2023" to "-2024")

If you are familiar with the IBM PC, you'll probably know that MS-DOS was based on a product called 86DOS from Seattle Computer
Here is one of the earliest builds of what became Microsoft's darling.
It's been compiled in July 1980, and less than 10 people had seen it.
Until now.

BTW, first European-made pocket-size calculator, the DB 800, was manufactured in May 1971 by Digitron in Buje .hr, ex-Yu, using TI TMS1802 even before chip was officially introduced in the US?
Interesting story, maybe worth digging & writing about?

When talking about 8bit in the East: here in Serbia, for the reasons unknown to this day, some folks in EI Niš (electronic giant, they made Honeywell-Bull) decided to badly clone Comx-35 and made Pecom, RCA CDP 1802 CPU based machine🤦♂️

Ahhh yesss, the mythical herpes. 🤦🏻♂️
Back in my day, that kind of ignorance would get one humiliated in front of the entire class or crowd, not to mention there were often "how can you be so stupid!?!" beatings afterwards as a bonus. It was very effective for most people...
