A couple of years ago I asked the Unidata folks if they had plans to port
spooling, a solid operating system, excellent job scheduling, productivity
tools, loyal customers, etc., etc."

I got the standard "that's a dead platform and OS.  Unix is the marketplace
of the future, etc., etc."

That was before the "recommitment" to the HP3000 from HP.  Unidata has been
purchased by Ardent.  Perhaps someone should ask them again.

FWIW.  My personal opinion.

Bruce.
