RIP Dennis Ritchie

who ? 

he's the guy who co-made "C" and also worked on Unix,  and you might think.. so what?

well if C++ didn't come from C, then a vast majority of programs in windows wouldn't be around perhaps including many pro audio programs.

and remember a LOT of the web servers run on *nix type servers..
