Any computers the sysadm forces you to run COS (like PSC)
or CTSS on it. Seriously, I never understood
why the guys at PSC were so fond of COS ? Couple of years ago,
despite that fact that CRI changed OS to UNIX, the PSC
guys were working their heads off to make UNIX behave
like COS. It is unbelievable that they charge 50% of connection
time as CPU time! I hope PSC is not runing COS now.

When I skim the buffer magzine the energy reseach publishes,
about 60% is talking about CTSS.
