This weekend, a video podcast showcased the MicroFrame computer used to demo QDOS to Bill Gates. Key players from Seattle Computer Products were interviewed about creating the first DOS and how it became MS-DOS on IBM PCs, which sparked Microsoft's rapid growth and prosperity. Moreover, viewers can see the S-100 Intel 8086 PCB removed from the MicroFrame.
In Unaligned 38: the creator of DOS, embedded above, host Robert Scoble chatted with Tim Paterson and Jim Harding, who worked at Seattle Computer Products together in the early 80s. They worked in the roles of Design Engineer and Sales Engineer, respectively. Scoble also has an illustrious tech history and is probably best known for duties as Microsoft's technology Evangelist in the early 2000s (during the Windows XP era).
