CP/M was created by Digital Research, a completely different company. There is no direct relation to DEC (Digital Equipment Corp.)

Even without CP/M, DEC still had incredible influence! The first multi-user system I used was a VAX, back in the late 80's.

Oh, I'm not in any way saying it didn't haha. Every other point still stands. Besides, even if it didn't directly influence DOS it did heavily influence another Microsoft operating system (NT)
