The CP/M, short for Control Program/Monitor, was one of the first operating systems of the personal computer revolution. It was launched in 1974, and it celebrates 50 years this year. It was ported and made available for many 8-bit machines with different CPUs and was related to running productivity software. If you ever used CP/M, then, well, I hate to say it, but you’re old. I had a brief encounter with CP/M when I was 14 or 15 years old; I can’t remember exactly.

    Greetings, fellow geezer! I had a CPC 464 in the mid eighties and when I bought the floppy disk drive, it came included when a CP/M boot disk. You couldn’t really do anything with it though, other than boot, because they didn’t include any application software. Now let’s go have a beer and complain about how young people just don’t have any respect any more these days.
