W. Hook) Newsgroups: comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc,comp.os.msdos.programmer Subject: Who the hell wrote CP/M? Message-ID: <27478@uflorida.cis.ufl.EDU> Date: 16 Mar 91 03:54:33 GMT Sender: seeger@uflorida.cis.ufl.EDU Organization: UF CIS Dept. Lines: 11 A friend and I got in a massive argument over who wrote the CP/M operating system. He claimed that it was "DEC" but I stated that it was DRI. I assumed all along that: 1. CP/M was written by Gary Kildall. 2. CP/M was written by DRI 3. DRI is NOT related to DEC (Digital Equipment Corporation) If I am in err, pleae let me know. Brian
