[net.unix] What is S1 O/S ?

jalsop@aesat.UUCP (John Alsop) (06/15/84)

I recently received a flyer in the mail advertising the "S1" operating
system. It stated "Unix is a dinosaur" and "MS/DOS and CP/M are toys".

Can anyone provide any info on this, as I've never heard of this O/S
before.

There's an article in the April '84 Unique called "The Truth
About S1".  The author went to see a demo, and they didn't have
much of anything running.  The founder of the company is a marketeer;
I don't recall if he had much computer experience or not.

Anyway, I recommend the article (and Unique in general).  Unix is good
enough for me, even if it is a 'dinosaur'.  I wonder what OS/360 is?
A eukaryotic bacterium?  A fern?
