Disagree.  It's worse than that.  IMO, they really don't want to kill
CTOS, but it's so low on the corporate priority list that they'll push
it into a very restricted corner.  There are regular announcements of
BIG system sales to customers; some in the US, some overseas.  These are
always focused, specialized systems.  Often with a Unisys mainframe as
part of the package.

Apparently Unisys, in their infinite wisdom, believes that they have no
ability to deal with the small customer.  This then becomes a
self-fulfilling prophesy.  They focus their sales on "enterprise"
systems, and do well in that marketplace.  So, by default, they're going
to let the small customers fade away.  They never could properly support
CTOS, and certainly aren't going to start now.  They don't encourage
third party developers, and the marketplace is small enough that few can
survive or flourish on quality CTOS development.

I could go on, but I don't want to get emotional!  <~>
