"David Bradley" -- He is the One who spent 1 minute and 23<br />seconds in writing the source code that rescues the world's PC users<br />for decades. <br /> </font></div> <div><font face="Arial" size="2">This<br />extraordinary IBM employee is retiring on Friday after a prolong<br />service of 29 years. His formula forces obstinate computers to restart<br />when they no longer follow other commands. By 1980, Bradley was one of<br />12 people working to create the debut. The engineers knew they had to<br />design a simple way to restart the computer when it fails to respond<br />the user -- Bradley wrote the code to make it work. </font></div> <div><font face="Arial" size="2">Bradley says. "<b>I did a lot of other things than Ctrl-Alt-Delete, but I'm famous for that one</b>." His fame and success is achieved each<br /> time a PC user fails. He commented his relationship with Bill gates by saying " <b>I<br />may have invented it, but Bill gates made it famous by applying my<br />formula when ever any Microsoft's Windows operating system made by him<br />CRASHES, thus I win when ever he looses</b>". </font></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
