Sounds like all GSD systems had licensed OSs.
Oh well, I'd like to have seen CCP in action.

Just checked the Soltis book, and your right,
the first shipments were in 1980.  I had thought
that the S/38 had shipped but was pulled due to
poor performance problems.

But even those models (3 & 5) were dogs.

IBM history has the S/38 here.
