Reading this article, seems like HP-UX is already following MPE and only Linux and WINXXX are the future. So, thousands convert from MPE to HP-UX and then along with the others to LINUX. Smells like lot's of money to be made. At least the conversion from HP-UX to Linux should-could be easier. And if HP needs more money, then to VMS, if the merger comes true? Millions and millions for Carly.
