What year was the first-ever version of Microsoft Word released, created by two former Xerox programmers?
Answer 1983
Microsoft Word's first version, Word 1.0, was released in October, 1983. It was created by former Xerox programmers Charles Simonyi and Richard Brodie. The first version was a "what you see is what you get" application, meaning that the way a document appeared on the screen was identical to how it appeared when printed. However, the application was not an immediate success due to competition from the WordPerfect and WordStar apps.
