Subject: Unix=CP/M???

       For the last 3 hours I have been reading my mail (about 4.5 weeks
worth) and I have noticed that there has been a lot of discussion on
Unix, S-100 Unix, and Unix on the 68000.  If I am not mistaken, this is
info-cpm.  How do the two relate?  According to the following message
by Andy Beals Unix and CP/M shouldn't mix company.  I wonder why
he continues it.

    Anyone who would even think of comparing UNIX to CP/M is out of their
    gourds. CP/M is good for what it does. It is a program loader and
    simple operating system. THAT IS IT.

    UNIX(tm), on the other hand is the best development enviroment around. It
    was written by hackers for themselves, so it wins.

    People who compare the two are showing their ignorance.
