WinDOS}. Hackerism(s) for &#8216;Microsoft Windows&#8217;. A thirty-two
bit extension and graphical shell to a sixteen-bit patch to an eight-bit
operating system originally coded for a four-bit microprocessor which was
written by a two-bit company that can't stand one bit of competition. Also
just called <span class="firstterm">Windoze</span>, with the
implication that you can fall asleep waiting for it to do anything; the
latter term is extremely common on Usenet. See
