- WRONG! You see guy, what DIGITAL really wanted you to do is to punt VMS
- completely and buy stuff from SUN Microsystems or HP or IBM.
-
- That way DIGITAL could loose all its customers faster.
-
- Remember, nobody out side of DIGITAL has as good reason to hate VAX/VMS,
- and as much ability to screw up the works, as as people *inside* DIGITAL.
-
- The PDP-10/DECSYSTEM-20 groups? Well, those failed because of VAX/VMS.
- The DEC PC, failed because of the VAX too.
- DEC's problems in the OEM market? Yep, it was the VAX that did it!
-
- Once DIGITAL gets rid of the VAX and VMS it will be a nice-place to
- work again and everybody will be happy.
