It was bizarre and ugly. The only thing that made it anywhere
near usable were the Software Tools.
There's a reason Prime died pretty quickly once Unix started to
spread. The architecture also was strange; the characters used

From what I hear, the main problem is that it's not possible to
distribute PRIMOS. Which is a shame; it does have Emacs so it must be a
nice operating system.
