And reason, perhaps.  Consider that it has an archaic file section, text 
based menu system, a user storage system that is bloated, a logging system 
that isn't multinode friendly, an input interface that is illsuited for 
standard systems, a restricted colour system (^1..^9), no language or 
multinode support, non-standard proprietary message areas (with no tosser 
that's worth mentioning to boot), etc.... ;)
