IBM OS/360 to Windows 3.1: Software that Changed Computing Forever

If you are going to put all of this "classic" software in there, where is OS/2?

 And for that matter, perhaps I missed it, but Microsoft Basic should be in there, along with Turbo Pascal, and 123.  123 revolutionized business in the 80's, and how many people learned programming with Turbo Pascal?

 

Looking at people talking about their first computer - my personal first PC was the Radio Shack Color Computer (still have it in a box after 27 years).  But the first system I used was a TRS-80 Model 2.  Our school's PC had 4 500kb 8" floppy drives, and I used it to store our school's football stats on, back in 1981.
