In the world:

March 13, 1969 — Herbie “The Love Bug” debuts. The original Herbie movie was followed by four theatrical sequels (the latest in 2005), a TV series and a made-for-TV remake.

At Microsoft:

March 13, 1986 — Microsoft stock goes public at $21 per share, rising to $28 per share by the end of the first trading day. The initial public offering raises $61 million.

    Uhm, I wasn't aware that March 28th was this week. (March 28th is the 2051st anniversary of Caesar's death)
