re: #308 Targetpractice

Better yet, let’s remember the fellow who coded MSDOS and how rich he became…oh, right, he didn’t become rich because a college dropout convinced IBM to buy the rights to 86-DOS, then rewrote it just enough to sell as his own product. That college dropout is Bill Gates, one of the richest men in America.

Don’t forget that his first product - MS Basic - was written on a PDP-10 donated to his college by the Navy on the condition that no commercial work be done on it. Rules are for peons.
