Hi,

 For a "reasonable" explanation of why AmigaDOS was written using BCPL
and how the Amiga evolved in general, I would suggest getting a hold
of the February 1986 issue if Byte magazine.  Page 321 - "TRIPOS-The
Roots Of AmigaDOS" - There is also an article by RJ Mical in the same
issue giving an introduction and overview of the Amiga ROM Kernel.
