I hate when people do lazy research.

CP/M actually stands for Control Program/Monitor.

While I don't know for sure, I suspected PL/M stands for Programming
Language/Monitor and not Programming Language/Microprocessor.

The Intel 4004 was NOT the first microprocessor, although that's an error
in fact that will be cleared up for good after the Vintage Computer
Festival.

By 1978, Sharp and Zenith had yet to even create computer divisions, let
alone have computers running CP/M.
