according to
hacker lore, the man who
lent his
initials (
MZ) to the
header section of
MS-DOS (and now
Windows)
executables. (he was one of the principle
architects of
MS-
DOS 2.0, so it seems likely, but I don't know that it has ever been publicly stated as being
fact.)
apparently still works at Microsoft (markz@microsoft.com), although he seems to be associated with Artifice, Inc, which produces DesignWorkshop, an architectural modeler and renderer.
