DOS Turns 30
C:\>_Look familiar? Then you must be old enough to have used DOS, perhaps the best-known command-line-based OS in popular computing history. I'm proud to have done so myself, though a few years later and I would likely have missed out altogether.The history of the OS is well-documented around the web, and perusing it is a nice reminder of the way things used to be. It came into its own in the early mid eighties (after being bought by Microsoft in 1981), mirroring the rise of the personal PC. Though the many developers that read this blog likely have a more varied personal OS history, DOS is something we can probably all look back on semi-fondly. And it's turning 30!Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/gEDUuHYe0yU/
