Reply to comment by SursumCorda-NJ in Pictured is the router which sent the 1st internet connection from NYC to Tokyo. These were sold out of a basement office of a home in Rahway NJ. It's signed by everyone who worked for Cisco Systems in 1989. It was given to my dad when he retired in 1999 for his work in establishing the internet. by TriggerTough
Yeah, so it’s either MS-DOS based systems or UNIX based. If it’s not a windows machine its 99% likely its UNIX based. This would lead you to think the vast majority of computing things are windows as it’s the most popular OS, however you need to consider ALL computers. Not just Laptops/PCs.
Think phones, tablets, smart watches, cars, “smart” anything’s, TVs, rockets, servers, anything running Linux, basically anything running a computer chip which is….a lot of shit now.
That being said, even windows has been in the last few year implementing more and more of the UNIX/POSIX type shit for developers.

Very cool. Thanks. What computer language does UNIX use?

The C programming language was created to facilitate the creation of UNIX, im sure it has assembly code all over the place too.
