I received my new Heathkit catalog yesterday and was surprised to see the rediculously low prices for these products. CP/M-86 is selling for $99.00 (was $250.00) and MPM-86 for $99.00 (was $649.00!!). Not being familiar with the capabilities, limitations and availability of applications software for these products, I wondered if these were "dead" operating systems. I use mainly CP/M-85 and MS-DOS. Can someone convince me that: A. These prices are the bargain of the century!! or B. They aren't worth the shipping cost. Thanx for your help. Wolf Wiedemann RADC-MULTICS
