Tom... Thanks so much for you analysis. I will get back to you next week regarding my brokers reasons for recommending TEAL. When he recommended I told him I would look into it and I have. I have not had the time and he has been away over the holidays so I have not reviewed my finding with him nor the reasons for his recommendation. Again my thanks and I will get back to you and others shortly. Bob T.

Tom: This message on the UIS thread: <To: +Allen Furlan (1526 ) From: +Kevin Hay Thursday, Jan 8 1998 11:48AM EST Reply # of 1531 DEC v. UIS Please note that one of the main authors of VMS (a DEC OS), Dave Cutler, has been at MSFT since the late 80's with the mission of making PCs do what VAXs have done for some time. The word I hear from my snooty computer friends is that this is all but achieved. NT is a gimme. Now there is a big stack of $ to be collected as the rest of the world figures this out. I'm not slamming DEC. I used to work on a VAX, pre Win 3.1, and it was great. This was mid-eighties and that VAX cost ~$100K, I believe. NT + a ~$4,000 machine now has more capacity. Besides, DEC and UIS are kind of Apples and Oranges aren't they? Here's the question: Is the world moving to VMS/Unix, or to NT? Maybe it's just the coffee talking.. -Kevin> received the following reply: <<+Roger Mills Thursday, Jan 8 1998 11:54AM EST Reply # of 1531 "Here's the question: Is the world moving to VMS/Unix, or to NT?" Where Unisys is concerned, it doesn't matter. They have them both covered. In fact, their new Server line will accomodate Unix running in a CPU concurrent with NT running in another. AND the apps will be able to communicate across a bus. At least that is what I've read in press releases!>> Tom, is this significant for TEAL?
