VMS... really nice and rock- steady OS. Too bad Digital never understood the greatness of it. They pumped all their VMS profit into producing crappy PC's in the 90's and went bust. Hmm... reminds me of another company that made about the same mistake....

Wish there was a DCL emulator for the Amiga :)

We are still using it.....running on HP hardware but VMS Mumps is still going strong, its the back bone of Mckesson PAS. VMS might meet its Virtualised maker in the sky this year, we are looking to host it on Intel. http://www.maindec.co.uk/services_charon_vax.html?gclid=CLuWxL7p3qACFcOT3wodPUEDQA


I still use it too. Everyday at work. It would be nice to have it running virtualized on mainstream hardware, I always thought the choice of Itanium was a less brilliant idea.
