>>I supposed this person never took an Operating Systems course. Unix had a superior file
system to FAT in 1973!<<

And UNIX ran on an IBM PC? It seems to me i know a bit about OSes, and you just posted a
non sequitur.


This is the most tautological argument I've heard on this thread. Basically, what you're saying is that MSFT's FAT was innovative because it was the first one available on an IBM PC. Just because it was the first on a given hardware platform does not make it innovative. You have to compare it to similar technology on other hardware platforms.
