As quoted from <1495@osiris.UUCP> by mjr@osiris.UUCP (Marcus J. Ranum):

->| "I must say that as I watch the OS/2 story unfold, I do begin to
->| wonder: if UNIX is ever made stable enough to be put in ROM, so that you
->| don't need a guru to maintain the system, there's less and less reason why
->| it won't catch on. I think of little that OS/2 promises that you can't do
->| with UNIX; and now that American Management Systems has developed the
->| long-mythical user-friendly UNIX shell, who knows ?

Oh no, Pournelle on the UNIX bandwagon? Is the the Death knell of UNIX?
