Well, I don't know if it is comparable, but have you ever
compared the source code to PDP-11 UNIX compared to, well say
Linux? The PDP-11 version makes interesting reading, but not a
single line of code is worth saving. In fact I'd say very little
of the design is probably worth saving either.

The MIT lisp code would surely be interesting, but I really doubt
it is going to be much more than a curiousity rather than the
base for a new LispOS.
