The life and death of Phil Katz, inventor of the PKZIP format, as told by
Dave Plummer, the creator of ZIPFolders for Windows. This is a great video by
Dave Plummer, retired MS engineer who now has a YouTube channel with over a
million subs. Dave's content is amazing as he dives deep into retro server
builds and coding. If you havenΓÇÖt subscribed to DaveΓÇÖs Garage yet,
youΓÇÖre missing out! You can view this intresting video on the history of
Zip files here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1sV-3-vPx3I
