Did IBM really invent the OSI model on their own? I thought the IEEE standardized that with help from programmers all over the industry?

Hmm? I wasn't talking about OSI.

If you're thinking BIOS, that was originally IBM proprietary stuff.

OSI started from a lot of telecom companies, who inflicted their silly ideas of Presentation and Session layers on us all.

No I'm definitely thinking of the OSI model lol

What are you talking about, then? What IBM standard did everyone else adopt?

[-] BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.uk 4 points 10 months ago

I'll go out on a limb here and assume they're talking about the IBM PC.
