One could probably argue for Gates

Keep in mind he did write an operating system

What one?

If Michael meant DOS, he didn't. He stole that from Digital Research's

recognize much of the code in the BIOS, line-for-line.

If he meant Windows -- well, he had the system written in-house, but he
ripped that methodology off from Mac... so...
