[inforoots] Unknown CDC Operating System

[Barrie Robinson]

I dimly remember vistiing several Max Plank (?) Institutes in Germany in 
the late 60's.  They all had the CDC biggies but were moving to Zeus.  You 
may find that they have someone in there that can remember.   I know they 
prided themselves in being fonts of wisdom for all things CDC
