no microsoft back then.  we had our own reverse-engineered PC-DOS
operating systems running on the reverse engineered PC's we (not me,
of course) were making.

the apple II clones:

there's a links there to a txt file detailing some more about the 8086 clones.

no MCSA, but they started an official cisco academy in my home town a
few years ago.  you can cue in jokes about the physical training
