Well, I don't know about that!  I'm only 23-years old, and the day's of 
8" floppy's were in my infantancy[sp]!  I did own a Comodore 128 with the 
CP/M OS though, and TPA was referenced many times in the documentation.  
I do long for the days where everyone had a "simple" interface to the 
OS.  It would be great if Windows, Windows NT, etc, had such a simple 
interface...
