Grrrrr, ok. We definitely agree on that point, though I would
honestly say VMS 5 would actually give them a run for their money.
But apart from the specifics of that argument, much of the other stuff
you're spouting off about is wildly, incredibly incorrect. And
they're not really matters of opinion.
You're going to stick to it, and that's fine. It's your
professional reputation on the line, not mine. Personally I think
it's better to have correct information than to see the world for how
we want it to be and insist that that's the way it is. You are
wearing blinders.

I would rather be extra paranoid and say, "Please don't stick that vms 5
box on the corporate network or I will fire your ass" Nothing to do with
the merits of VMS vs anything else. I would say the same if they wanted
to run their SS 20 running SunOS 4.1.4 too. People here get all
defensive and ask me to hack their system to prove it's insecure. That's
not really how it works in the real world.
