We report here an example of a series of computer simulations of the formation of disk galaxies, including a standard cold dark matter component, gas, and star formation, which result in objects which closely resemble observed giant galaxies, with a population of long-lived dwarf satellites which contain little or no non–baryonic dark matter.
