-
- As someone who has worked with various vendor's implementations of
- OSF/1 for the last year and a half and is aware of all the features,
- advantages and disadvantages of OSF/1, my strong opinion is that HP
- should keep as far from OSF/1 as possible.
-
- OSF/1 was a good idea, but it just didn't work out. HP's plan of
- waiting until OSF/2 (base presumably on Mach 2.5) is a good plan.
-
- OSF Motif is a success, OSF DCE and DME look to be future successes.
- Further, it looks like even OSF ANDF has a chance. Four out of five
- is a very good record...
