A behemoth episode for a behemoth company. Wonderfully, well researched and well articulated

Almost 2 hours in. Absolute loving it. Couple things, not sure if they’ve been pointed out but MS-DOS was not “the” DOS. DOS, similar to OS, was a relatively common term. Apple had their own DOS. It probably should have been phrased that they turned it into “‘the’ MS-DOS” or the most famous DOS. Also you mentioned every windows copy until 95 ran on DOS. Every copy of Windows before ME actually ran on DOS, including 95 and 98. They just hid it better on 98. Love your content. Thanks for your effort in making this show so great!

I love Microsoft's story. I love knowing about old Windows systems, it's always nostalgic to me.

26:00 they didn't figure out shit . Bill Sr negotiated the deal. They were smart kids but having your parents be heavyweights of law and business made all the difference.

Heard it on audio on pocketcasts but commenting here - this was fantastic! Cannot believe how far the show has come. Went from almost home video to now perhaps better than HBO quality

27:00 what are the odds that bill Sr being involved in various legal activities in the city identified this opportunity for them?

Is there any video available for this podcast? It's be good to have some reference images and stuff along with the audio. Absolutely loved the audio experience.

Playbook theme was unique by them and for this time was the ability to play a long game because of their cashflow, pair that with the best legal council ever and you have contracts that enabled this success, one bad contract, one profit maximizing push and they are digital research

Can anyone clarify when/where they do audio-only vs video versions of the episodes? Is it only audio now? I miss the video versions.

Yes! We do video versions when we are live in-person with a guest. Otherwise when we are just recording on a video call (all Ben/David-only episodes are done this way), it is audio-only.

I've made terrible intros but not because I wanted to. Microsoft is a real hard target even for someone like you. They're so big, you don't and can't know what they're involved in. Forget their history which is irrelevant at this point. Taking this at face value is the only hope for the viewer and if those people should, it's only to their detriment. Nothing as big as MS can exist as it is forever. It will eventually without much of a nudge implode by itself and hopefully spin off companies it has acquired over the years. The only thing that possibly can keep this magnitude of company liquid should they fuck up is the Federal Reserve through member banks. Same thing as Amazon. If the Federal Reserve Act ended and 12 years was given as a grace from the Treasury, those companies would along with some sinister banks implode overnight. That's how crucial the FED is to the current prevailing oligopoly.
