	My experiences with coherent (actually on an Ithaca
Intersystems Z8000 system) were that it was a fairly passable
unix look-alike.  Don't ask me for specifics as it has been a
while but I do remember that there were some things they did
that at the time impressed me as being rather shlocky.  Apparently
Ithaca was impressed the same way as they eventually started
shipping Xenix, and offered fairly low-cost upgrades to those
individuals already having coherent systems.  The xenix by
the way seemed considerably less shlocky.
