16 May 2024
- 15:1115:11, 16 May 2024 diff hist −51 Acorn MOS →Reception: Removed "having noticed that 1.5 million BBC Micros were sold", since that figure covers the entire lifespan of the machine, which isn't something Gates would have been able to "notice" at the time, alleged visionary or otherwise.

12 May 2024
- 17:3017:30, 12 May 2024 diff hist +719 Preemption (computing) →System support: Propagate changes from the "Computer multitasking" article which seems to have had a similar treatment in the past. Added QDOS reference, leaving it to someone else to unpick the AmigaOS/AmigaDOS/Exec folklore.
