🗓️ Tech Trivia
On June 18, 1979, Microsoft introduced BASIC for 8086 16-bit microprocessors. This was a stepping stone for Microsoft as it partnered with Seattle Computer Products.
In 1980, IBM wanted to use CP/M operating system for its upcoming PC. The talks failed with CP/M creator Gary Kildall. In 1981, IBM awarded a contract to Microsoft for developing a CP/M like operating system.
Instead of developing it from scratch, Microsoft purchased a CP/M clone, 86-DOS, from Seattle Computer Products and sold it to IBM as PC DOS (later to be known as MS DOS).
