Jun 27th 2022 Windows Defender can Significantly Impact Intel CPU Performance, We have the Fix (182).Maybe I should dust off that old MS-DOS system in the garage and see if it still works. When it comes to yours truly, while I don't plan to do much experimenting, this has created an itch to relive the past. That said, users are more than welcome to create separate development forks for exploration and experimentation. Microsoft has stated that they will ignore any pull requests or changes to the original source code, with the repository instead being kept static more as a historical reference to be used in literature. This is fitting considering Paterson is the original author of 86-DOS, which forms the basis for MS-DOS. According to Rich Turner, a Senior Program Manager at Microsoft, it is "much easier to find, read, and refer to MS-DOS source files if they're in a GitHub repo than in the original downloadable compressed archive file." The compressed archive Turner mentions is the original release of the source code from 2014 when both versions of MS-DOS were first made available via the Computer History Museum after their discovery by Tim Paterson. Accordingly, the Redmond-based IT giant has set up an online repository from which they could re-release versions 1.25 and 2.0 of MS-DOS. Considering Microsoft only recently acquired GitHub, it took them no time at all to put the software development platform to good use.
