Default Is Usnet Dying?

A friend had a Kaypro. One of those "almost" compatibles, right?


No. cp/m was not intended as a compatible. It was there first, meant to
become the big dog on the block, and using it almost cost KayPro its
shirt, which it later lost anyway, IIRC.


OK, the one I'm thinking of was a green screen deal, no hard drives, and the
guy was trying to run DOS 3.x on it IIRC. Kept having minor problems with
stuff not working, and decided the computer was a chucker. It was a
hand-me-down by that point.
