I would say I said what I said because you wrote in your post "Pretty good about MS being innovative.." which is far from being loaded. As such I would contend I was replying exactly on face value, to your proposition followed by a fact. I would also further put forward that your fact selection itself also contains meaning in the context of a response to my prior post.

Finally I would argue that what you said the first time was more factual ("first product that really got them going"), rather than your second rephrasing "about the start of a business" which is actually erroneous as there was a Microsoft before DOS (MS-DOS).

Hopefully that clears up your chin scratching confusion.
