Eliot,
"...then will there be to do on a MARC system?" Well, lots. What is there
to do
on a RSX11-M system when we have RT-11? What about RSTS? The answer is
that different operating systems appeal to different applications and different
users. In reality that's a big reason why both UNIX and VMS exist for VAX
computers, and will continue to exist. Each has it's group of followers.
I personally have nothing against CP/M, but I find that the user interface (and
general philosophy) of UNIX to be more to my liking. Therefore, I look forward
to the day when I can purchase MARC for my home system. That's all.
