"Saul welcomed that suggestion and over the next six months became so proficient in IBM's AIX he built what he described as "a fairly not bad, multi-user, fault reporting system with Informix." That feat earned him extra responsibilities helping the IBM dealer's pre-sales team, plus work building and installing customer systems. While Saul enjoyed exploring and working with AIX, the PC's rise and rise was by then inexorable."
""It was a VT100 terminal emulator and filesystem share tool, and pretty cool for its time." Saul liked this software, so he decided to explore it thoroughly by using Norton Utilities to inspect its executable to see if he could find anything interesting. That effort didn't produce anything of note, save a list of the program's error messages. One of which was "S*x feels so f***ing good, I just can't stop.""
Saul worked for an IBM dealer in the late 1980s after teaching himself PC/DOS skills. His boss asked him to learn UNIX, and within six months he became proficient in IBM's AIX, building a multi-user fault reporting system using Informix. That led to pre-sales and customer-installation responsibilities. Saul later encountered AADU (AIX Access for DOS Users), a VT100 terminal emulator and filesystem share tool, and used Norton Utilities to inspect its executable. The inspection produced a list of error messages, including an explicit string: "S*x feels so f***ing good, I just can't stop." An IBM contact reacted with shock when shown the finding.
