Two rumors have surfaced on the info-68k list that Atari users may be able
to answer:

           1.  The Atari ST is running a version of CP/M-68K with GEM
               built in.  (Could this be true?)

           2.  There exists a generic Z80 emulator (not 8080) in the
               public domain that allows 68000 machines to run CP/M-80
               programs and that this program is available for Ataris
               but is *so* generic that any 68000 based micro could
               run it.  This is not to be confused with the 8080
               emulator from recent Dr. Dobb's issues.

Can anyone verify or refute these rumors?
