Don,

In this whole Microsoft/DOS story, what has been barely written about is why IBM didn't write their own OS. They certainly had the people to design the hardware and they had more than enough talented people to design operating systems. So, why not hire a few people from the mainframe groups to put together an OS? I've never understood such blind stupidity on the part of IBM.
