   It might could have been, if Gary Kildall had jumped for IBM as high and   
   fast as Bill Gates did. It didn't help any that Bill got a clone OS   
   cheap and had nothing to lose with it, whereas CP/M was DR's main source   
   of income.

   That was the incident that was the beginning of the end for CP/M.
