Well, you are *WRONG*!  The C128 CP/M mode is not proprietary - it has quite
a degree of compatibility with Kaypro CP/M, and will run almost all of the
'packaged' programs, as long as they include some kind of installation program
or feature for customizing terminal (screen) output.

Please check your facts before making assertions like this - rather than saying
somthing wrong and asking to be corrected...
