In case you were wondering why people in computing hated Bill Gates with an undying passion. He still won't stop taking credit for others' work, and using the legal system to give himself special privileges (copyright and such) because of it.

- hanspeter 11y ago"The Apple II Plus, introduced in June 1979, included the Applesoft BASIC programming language in ROM. This Microsoft-authored dialect of BASIC, which was previously available as an upgrade, supported floating-point arithmetic, and became the standard BASIC dialect on the Apple II series (though it ran at a noticeably slower speed than Steve Wozniak's Integer BASIC)." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_II_series https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_II_series
