Aron will be the North American CG> Ultimate Packrat and Richard will be the European Ultimate Packrat. (Drum CG> roll and fanfare.) I think CP/M might predate these by a few years. The first versions were diskless, and were taken from PL/M which ran on an IBM mainframe, I believe. I think the very first code in this development ran on a 4004 or 8008, predating even the 8080. About 1971-73 I think. Might check a bit more before the fanfare. :-) -- rikona mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
