could be someone who learned on unidata too. unidata supports proc, but there 
doesn't appear to be a manual for it (If anyone has one, can I get a copy?). If 
you were doing new development on unidata, you may easily never have seen a 
proc.

That could easily be true of any BASIC programmer who learnt on Primes.
Actually, that sounds almost certainly like that's the case, seeing as
PAragraphs first appeared on Prime, specifically as the replacement for
PROC.

INFORMATION only (officially) got PROC when it was already on its death
bed ... iirc the last version ever released was 8.1, and the first
version with PROC was 8.0.

Certainly I've never been near the thing - never really encountered it
although I did know of its existence.

And then at some point, when a part fails, it tries to call Sequoia to send a

It doesn't know how to handle the message "The phone number you've reached has

 mvEnterprise is a Unix-based platform derived from Sequoia.
 mvBase is a Windows-based platform derived from ADDS.
 They're VERY different, though of course still rooted in R83.
 
 Both platforms are now owned by TigerLogic, and despite early
 concerns about deprecation and forced migration, the platforms
 have been well supported for more than 10 years since the
 acquisition from General Automation.

Re: [U2] Ardent programmers

2011-09-09 Thread Ed Clark
Both Sequoia and Stratus licensed Pick OA to sell on their fault-tolerant 
systems and ran with it in different directions. Sequoia ran a little farther 
:) Sequoia ran their pick on top of their proprietary TOPIX operating system 
and Stratus ran theirs on top of their VOS os. Sequoia eventually sold to GA 
but Stratus abandoned their pick around 1995 and started selling their 
fault-tolerant hardware with HP/UX and universe.

Pick 64 was a native pick from Alpha Microsystems. Sequoia may have bought 
it--I don't know. There was a Sequoia Pro product. 

The first time I heard the mvEnterprise name was in 1997. At that point GA had 
rebranded Sequoia (now running on AIX) as mvEnterprise, and the ADDS Mentor 
successor running on windows nt as mvBase, and Pick 64 as mvPro. I think the 
mvBase name may have existed before GA bought the database from Sun River (who 
bought ADDS from NCR I think, and kept the terminal business but didn't want 
the database). The rebranding didn't include their Power95 database (also 
running on AIX) and I had the impression that they were phasing it out (though 
there are still power95 users out there).

GA also has a hardware line named mv.ES (Enterprise Server)

Still I can understand and write PROC, it is a necessity when you have

Here it is.  Sequoia ran Open Architecture from Pick Systems.

They heavily modified it.  I think they did, or at least TRIED to market 
something called Pick 64 under their own license, or some kind of sub sub 
license scheme to other vendors.

I can still read and write both PQ and PQN (OK, I'm old). In eons past 
it was possible on Microdata to write an entire database app, with file 
reads and writes - not that I would want to (I'm cantankerous, not 
masochistic, suicidal or stupid). I wouldn't even want to convert one to 
Basic anymore, too much head scratching and I don't have all that much 
hair left.


Gotta love paragraphs - there's a lot of power there and they're much 
easier to understand and maintain.

That's right Tony, but my point was only that it was not *called* mvEnterprise 
in the mid 90s like Dawn's chart would imply.  (Where it's just called 
mvEnterprise with no predecessor name.)

Good questions Will. When I moved 8 years ago, I had one of these posters

lost that in the move and haven't dived back into it -- too many projects
going!

Yes, I think I recall thinking that DG was later but that there was no way
to show it as a port without putting it in this list that did not really
conform to my initial purpose of tracing the mv query language from origin

Re: [U2] Ardent programmers

2011-09-09 Thread Wjhonson

The Sequel was followed by the "Super" Sequel which tested, at the time, the 
boundary of moving from say 96 users up to 192 users.
The Spirit was something like the striped down version of the Sequel for those 
who didn't want or need or couldn't afford the Sequel.
It wasn't a viable option for Sequel users to move to the Spirit, it was more 
the attempt to get into the "smaller" marketplace where you only needed 24 
ports or thereabouts.

By the way the Super Sequel was three refrigerators, side by side.
ADP sold-in the Sequel, super Sequel and Spirit all three.  I don't really know 
what kind of traction they got with the Spirit.
That was right about the time when they *suddenly* had 20 competitors in the 
same space.

Is there a way to make your picture bigger?
By the way I don't think Data General ever installed software from Pick and 
Company, but they did load Universe on several boxes.
I wonder if there's a way to indicate that sort of distinction in your map?

I want to say that DG didn't get into Pick until around 1990, but I'm not 
certain of exactly the year.
So if I'm right, they didn't come in with the hyenas under R83

Wasn't Spirit the one with a natural language query processor? I 
remember a friend who was testing natural language and asked "What are 
the wages of sin?", to which the computer promptly responded "$46.50 per 
hour". It turns out there was an employee named John Sinn who earned, 
you guessed it, $46.50 per hour. I may have gotten the amount wrong, but 
you get the idea. Memory is the first thing to go!
