Veni, Vidi, (Re)aedificavi "I Came, I saw, I (Re)built" (A Commissioned Battletech Isekei)

"Somehow, Microsoft has returned"
Lmao, imagine the money he will make with his computer programs and everything else aside from the Mechs has me hyped almost as much as the potential Mechs they can make. Heh imagine if one day he decides to make an exoskeleton that develops to Power Armor or maybe a stealth jet. That is not to say the good ole computer hardware that he might "innovate".
 
Take the free qa while they know not what they have done.

Upgrade to Viewport XP today! Available for licensing at your nearest HPG station. Supported on all SL standard noteputers.

Honestly with the sideline you'll be giving Com* in tech support revenue, they ought to be paying you for starting a new tech revolution.
 
I mean at this point, if he's made what seems to be a fully functional version of a OS and it has all the support packages, why not just start selling those, there is a reason Microsoft is a 3 trillion dollar business.

That seems to be his goal. He mentions it being six to eight months before he would be willing to sell it to others. And as he is the only person who knows how to program in the OS for now, he can make bank on Add-On programs. Software, where the real money is. Make it once and sell it a billion times.
 
That CEO gave that away for too cheap but then again, of not much is going on with that they might as well make something off of it.

I see his OS looking like Windows 95 with alot of the nice things from Win7 baked in for the users. If he can get an equivalent excel for when around Win7 released, he will be set for a small income stream.

ComStar is really gonna be up his ass though when this gets out.
 
Comstar will be completely blindsided by this, they worry about rediscovery of Star League technology, somebody actually innovating is out of context problem for them.
 
The biggest factor is making people aware that things can be done differently, in user friendly and efficient way. Once others start to copy the approach, ROM might still try to kill him out of spite, but the horse has already bolted.
