	They put CP/M on the PDP-11

Is this news? What do they think RT-11 is? CP/M was cloned
from RT-11 in the good ole days; RT-11 has grown a little
since then, but it's still the same user interface, the same
design, the same system:

	BDOS	RMON
	CCP	KMON
	BIOS	Drivers

And DIR, PIP, ^U, ^C: all these are copied from RT-11. So why
bother putting CP/M on the PDP-11? It's been there for years.
