Perhaps someday Windows XP will be released open source but not for some time yet
We just got through the 1980s 1990s stuff still this is really neat

This part was really cool thank Tim for living long enough to keep a copy
But I didn’t have the source to the earlier version 1.1, and neither, apparently, did Microsoft. Just as I was finishing the first draft of this article, I received it directly from the author, Tim Paterson! We are grateful to Tim for sending it, and to Roy for quickly getting the additional permission needed to release it as well.

Now heres the strange part you think Tim should be really old since were talking about MS-DOS but he is only 56 Smiley
