I'm guessing you mean an original 64K PC, not 64K MB.

BTW, regarding Bill Gates stealing the Windows idea from Apple... well, yes
he did and I'm surprised Apple wasn't able to stick it to him, but remember
that Steve Jobs stole the idea from Xerox. And thank goodness they did
because the Xerox executives thought the new GUI brain child of their Think
Tank was a totally useless idea and canned the entire project.  Numerous
very successful entrepreneurs subsequently came out of that Xerox Think
Tank.
