Yeah, yeah....exactly WHO twisted Gates' and Ballmer's arms to get them
to conceive, develop, ballyhoo, send payola and "leaks" to columnists,
and release LoseDOS 9x
WHO?!?!?!

Well, that is the main window. That is by design.
All other windows make references to what is there. If it is not there,
what is the meaning of the other windows?

Why should they?
Unix still runs code from the early 1970's.
Any machine with a Fortran compiler still runs code from the 1960's
The conversion from the Win16 API to the Win32 API is *NOT* trivial.
If it were simpley a matter of replacing syscall_16(arguments) with
syscall_32(arguments) and recompiling, the Lose32 API based products
would have been available immediately, but they aren't. Given the
profit-motive involved, there must be some SERIOUS impediments to
conversion from the Lose16 API to the Lose32 API.
So, you must ask yourself....what was making it so difficult to
upgrade from the Lose16 API to the Lose32 API?
The only reason this is an issue at all is because the M$ API's were never
properly conceived, let alone well-written, and so constant re-shuffling
is the norm, and backwards compatibility is so far out in dreamland it's
laughable to talk about it ....with M$ platforms.
We won't even talk about the supposed inability to come up with a
trivial virtual MS-DOS machine to run on Neutered Technology.
The fact is...it's a CHURNING RACKET.
In the securities field, such practices not only put you out of
business...it puts you IN JAIL.
7
For the rest of the world, backwards compatibility is considered not
merely standard, but MANDATORY.
You're problem is that you're thinking like yet another Middle Aged Fat
Ass Manager who thinks he knows everything about computing because he's
mastered the Start button.

So a newspaper isn't free speech because it has restrictions on how it can be
reproduced? I can't tear a few stories out of a newspaper and use them to
create my own newspaper. But according to you, restrictions on how something
can be reused makes it no longer free. So are newspapers, books and magazines
suddenly not examples of free speech?

IPO = initial PUBLIC offering.
It doesn't mean that the stock wasn't in existance before then. In fact,
to incorporate, you MUST issue stock. Are you claiming that Microsoft didn't
incorporate until 1994?

Split 8 times, or have had 3 separate 2 for 1 splits which compound into
what is effectively an 8:1 split.

His basis would PRECEDE the IPO price.
IPO merely means Initial PUBLIC offering. Gates and Ballmer and others
have held shares since M$ was incorporated in the 1970's.
