    I know of it, but not much about it, a lot of the computer systems i installed UPS systems for where IBM servers, so that may be why it rings a bell :think:

    While we are on the subject, does anyone remember QDOS?

    And what it stood for.?

    The for runner to MS DOS, written for IBM, as they where strugleing to get an OS to work there new PC's, according to the storys back then

    And how it turned bill gates from a spotty kid, to a spotty very very rich kid:p
