   I think the command that was intended was:

	   ln -s /dos/quicken /quicken

Actually, they are the same.  If the second argument to ln -s is a
directory that exists, a link is created in that directory with the
same name as the last segment of the pathname of the first argument.
Hence ln will create a link in /quicken with the contents
"/dos/quicken".

Quoted from the "Overheard" section of the April 1993 issue of "UnixWorld",
without permission, but that's funny based on the contents... :-)

   Here's part of a letter UnixWorld received from Microsoft: "The library
   at Microsoft has been receiving requests from employees for copies of
   particular articles from [UnixWorld], and Microsoft would like to include
   the publication in its list of approved publications for article
   reproduction.  We request that you sign this letter and consent to
   Microsoft and its subsidiaries reproducing copies of selected articles
   from the publication obtained from any source and in any format."

And the response from UnixWorld...

   Sure, if we can do the same with your software.
