But you can always question a subsystem one or the other O.S. supplies
as part of the base O.S. product - and this changes from release to
release (e.g. HPUX 10 added several HPUX 9 options; MPE/iX 5 added a
bunch of MPE/iX 4 options). With NFS on MPE/iX, you don't have to pay
for it if you don't need it - just like a spooler with recovery
abilities and good forms handling, etc., or a DBMS, on HPUX.
