    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA DAVIS AUG 7 1981 Agricultural Economics Library Our Experience With Choosing and Using Microcomputers in California By Ken tf:::son & Gordon Rowe Invited Paper, Western Agricultural Economic Association July 19-21, 1981 Olson an.cl Rowe are Economists with Cooperative Extension, University of California, stationed at Davis and Berkeley, respectively. Our Experience With Choosing and Using Microcomputers in California In this paper we will discuss our experiences with microcomputers. First, a discussion of our considerations in selecting hardware and software. Second, a discussion of our current uses of the microcomputer and our future plans. Our experience using computers in California goes back to the use of IBM's 701, their first computer at Berkeley in the early 50's. Since then we have seen growth of computer facilities at the various campuses and in depart­ ments. Cooperative Extension in California has shared in the use of computers with ARE at Berkeley since 1955 and purchased a mini in 1975 for ADP and applied research at Berkeley. We have seen the development and implementation of a vast amount of computer technology since our early days. This has lead us to microcomputer applications which we began in 1979. A Cromemco 22-D (64k and 2 mini drives) with TI R0-810 printer and SOROC 120 CRT as peripherals. This initial system has been expanded to include a Micro B terminal with all its options including an 8085A processor, Persci quad capacity 8" drives, a 26 megabyte hard disk system from Morrow and telecommuni­ cations hardware including a DC Hayes micro Modem board and more recently Cromemco's I/0 processor and quadart board.

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract For years, rumors have circulated that the code for the original DOS operating system created by Microsoft for the IBM personal computer is actually copied from the CP/M operating system de- veloped by Digital Research Incorporated. In this paper, scientifically tested and accepted forensic analysis mathematical techniques, step-by-step processes, and advanced software code compari- son tools are used to compare early versions of the two code bases. The conclusion is reached that no copying of code takes place1. Keywords DOS, CP/M, Copyright Infringement, Software Forensics, Software Correlation 1.
