Very interesting! I worked around a number of CTOS-based machines in a Unisys-based financial environment in the late 90s. I was responsible for the "PC" portion of the network. The CTOS-systems all fell on the "Unisys-side", where we plebeian non-Unisys vendors weren't permitted to work! I was always interested in the CTOS machines but never got a chance to mess around with any of them. Sounds like it might have been a lot of fun.
- JoeAltmaier 10y agoYeah, Unisys bought Convergent. The Financial environment was strong. Also government and military. Anybody who used total-cost-of-ownership as a metric found CTOS to be attractive. The network was self-configuring so you saved a network admin right off the top.
