Microsoft Works was not written by Microsoft, typical random blog ignorance :P

Microsoft Works was developed and licensed from Productivity Software, company launched by ex Apple employees Don Williams & Gene Carter. Microsoft threatened to destroy their company if they didnt sell. From horses mouth https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ai24F4Nel7U&feature=youtu.be...

Mac OS revolutionary? Not really, try AmigaOS with preemptive multitasking on ~same level of hardware. Mac OS was a quick hack and a kludge, whole switcher/multifinder ordeal was just sad for a modern 32bit operating system :(
