🔗 Celebrating 50 years of Microsoft

A nice retrospective on Altair BASIC — Microsoft’s first product — from Bill Gates. And quite a flashy page as well (maybe a little too flashy: it wasn’t really possible to select text). No spoilers, but it’s amusing to see them pull the same trick with MITS and Altair BASIC as they did with IBM and DOS.
