and All I said about OS/2 on the PDP-11 was that I had a TK-50 for the
PDP-11 that had OS/2 on it.
That is a true, factual statement.
A statement that "I have a tape for the PDP-11 that is LABELED "OS/2"
would be defensible.
"that has OS/2 on it" is a wild claim.
I still have the tape, still willingJ to provide the
info to anyone that
can verify what it is.
No one has ever offered.
Numerous people asked to see the tape, or even just a directory listing of
its contents.
It's very daft to say someone is making something
up when you don't have
any proof, and don't offer any way to validate the statements one way or
the other.
OTOH, when somebody makes an unbelievable claim, and won't offer any way
to validate the claim, it would be very daft to accept the claim.
