M$ developed th OS for C=64, but that's OT.
What does M$ get out of this? A percentage (Or maybe AI is paying them a distribution fee?). They also get some credibility in a new market where they had none before. They also get what they got from Apple: More proof that they are NOT a monopoly :roflmao:
Still, I was watching that new version of "It's A Wonderful Life" with Bill Gates as Old Man Potter and Amiga Bill as Uncle Billy. I remember the scene in the bank, as Uncle Billy sees Old Man Potter near the tellers
UNCLE BILLY: "Well hello, Mr.Potter! How are things today? Have you heard the latest from those Amiga boys? They're pretty hot stuff! Here, hold our entire product line for a minute so I can show you what's in today's paper! Looks like content, Mr. Potter, content in areas you never could have gotten into on your own. Well, just goes to show that you just can't keep those Amiga boys down. Come and see us if you need a loan in the future! Good day, Mr. Potter!
(Wait... Now where did I put that product line?)"
