Hey Mark.
How many of them are there now?? Ultrix..dead...SunOS..sorta dead..SCO is out...
AIX, HPUX, DGUX, Motorola, NCR, Tandem, Unixware..all SysV variants (either
licensed it from AT&T or mimicked it).
Tru64 (the last major OSF variant)... OS/X (if it's similar to anything
right now, I'm sure Apple will change it).
I'm having trouble thinking of anything out there....oh...I guess IRIX
to a large extent (many of the MIPS based machines used BSD variants...but
when they kinda died out, so did their vendor OSs).
Just curious,
Chris
