You'd think they'd have learned enough from the PC-DOS/MS-DOS efforts.
Was it really a subcontract thing? I had been under the impression that it was out right joint development, which in the schism resulted in NT and OS/2.
And NT, of course, led to all later versions of Windows, including....wait for it....Windows 10!
