Josh Lyman posted:Just to make sure I understand the BIOS situation correctly, Gordon figured out the functional spec of the IBM BIOS. In other words, he figured out its inputs/outputs that software interacts with. However, in order to replicate the functionality, they'd still have to use the IBM BIOS, so they hired Cameron to write a Cardiff version of the IBM BIOS, now that Gordon figured out what it has to do. Is that right? One person figures out the code and what function it does. He then writes down what it does without the how it does it. This gets handed to the second person who now knows what it needs to do then writes how to do it. This is how reverse engineering works. The binder is the code (how it does it) that Gordon figured out. He should be writing each line of what it does and giving it to Cameron who is suppose to then figure out how to make it do that. This keeps things legal because Cameron never saw IBMs code.
