Is this the Z-machine you are talking about or am I missing something?

That sure does look like it to me, although *shrug* dunno for sure.

CP/M was created by DEC, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Equipment_Corporation. I understand it was a business operating system. Many 8 bit computers did not run CP/M until they were big enough. But the Commodore 64 had a CP/M cartridge and the C128 came with CP/M inside it, if memory serves, unless that too was a cartridge, but I had a C128 and I don't remember buying it separate. As far as I know the ZX Specturm 48K didn't have CP/M but I just learned that the Spectrum +3 did.
CP/M was not created by Digital Equipment Corporation, but by Digital Research, Inc.
Just like the 65C02 is not a product of Western Digital, but Western Design Center.
And WordStar was not from Microsoft, but from MicroPro.
Apparently it's a thing to reuse elements of other companies' names—like Business Machines, whether they be International or Commodore. ?

Oops. My bad.
