in so far as they are capable of doing it,
but not necessarily what you intended.

Anonymous - I see your 1993 Bill Gates quote and raise you a 1982 one.

...back in 1982 Bill Gates came to see Hermann Hauser, "We showed Bill Gates the Econet network and he said 'What's a network?'", so Acorn were definately on Microsoft's radar, but luckily they didn't know what a radar was either.
Ha ha I really enjoy those quotes
