[net.general] Unix vs. world

>From an Amdahl paper describing their UTS system (Unix running on
IBM 370s and compatible machines under VM):

	...programmers working under CMS are about twice as
	productive as programmers working under TSO... in
	comparison, using UTS they are three to six times more
	productive than when using TSO...

	And that's pretty good when you consider (as I have been told) that
unix on IBM 370's crocks out on any kind of cbreak/raw mode for tty's.
I.e., no "vi" or "emacs" at the keystroke-level of response.
