Absurd is a very strong word.  It seems a bit silly to perpetuate
an outmoded RT-11 like user interface.  For all those applications
written in BASIC, I would say that it makes more sense to write
a 68000 BASIC that is compatible with the popular CBASIC and MBASIC
interpreters and put it on top of a decent OS.  Don't confuse most
BASIC applications (which really know nothing nor care anything about
CP/M) with CP/M itself.
