Then UNIX would be another VMS... A major reason you can buy your UNIX
computer so cheaply is that there is competition between hardware
and application software builders because they don't have to design
YAPOS (yet another proprietary operating system) or invest heaps in
porting the application to YAPOS. A hardware standard would leave us
locked in with that. Roll on IBM - I want to standardise on the 360
(actually 1401) architecture - its RISC and CISC together!
