Does anybody have any real information about the S1 operating system?

It's been advertised recently in computerworld under the headline
"Unix is a dinosaur; CP/M and MS-DOS are toys" (well, they're at least
half right).  It claims to do everything for everybody, and their
brochure claims that they already have it running on Z80, 8080, 8086/88,
68000, and will soon have it for 80286,16032 and I forget what else.
They also claim C, PASCAL, MODULA-2, etc. compilers, with ADA and LISP
coming.

Obviously, this sounds much too good to be true.  Anybody have any 
first-hand experience with it?  Oh, it's from Multi Solutions Inc,
in New Jersey.
