He presented his ideas to a crowd of researchers at Stanford Research Institute in the early '60s. But, while he presented the idea to a select few of the researchers, he didn't get his hands on the paper until the following summer.

After a few months of research, Engelbart decided to take his own initiative.

"We thought there would be room for the development of a more powerful version of the old Microsoft Windows operating system," he said. "Unfortunately, it didn't work out, and we didn't have a way to get it to work. I had a lot of hard work ahead of me—but I finally came up with a method that we were going to develop."

He was able to get the idea to the world by working on a new version of Microsoft Word, and it was quickly adopted by millions of people worldwide.

With that much momentum behind him, he finally decided to move on to a new version of Microsoft Outlook, which he called the "Old Macintosh."

This version of the old computer was the "mother of all demos."

Then, one of his students asked him, "What about the new Microsoft Outlook?"

His answer: "Well, I've been asked that a lot more questions than I could answer." In many ways, this answer is like the one that made the old IBM PC obsolete.

Even today, the old IBM PC is no longer the most popular computer of today, but there is still plenty of room for others looking to make the future a whole lot brighter.

That's because in recent years, new computers—including the new Outlook, the latest version of Windows, and the newest version of its desktop-style design—are making the transition to open source.

The new Outlook for Outlook 3.0, which is released on Thursday, is the only one to have the ability to run natively on a non-Windows computer.

The Microsoft Outlook 3.0 will ship with the full-screen version of Windows, as well as the full-screen version of Windows Vista.
