HP now owns a lot of not very popular and classic operating systems under the sun.

They own OpenVMS and Tandem fault tolerant Non-Stop operating system. Two GREAT operating systems that few developers know today.

And then they spun off a great measurement and test equipment company — Agilent Technologies, that makes instruments and equipment for life sciences, medical diagnostics, and chemistry applications.

The separation of HP with Agilent was overseen by none other than Carly Fiorina.

And she killed off PA-RISC which in turn killed/is killing off HP-UX. And then she added Compaq so HP’s gross went over $49 billion in order to collect her bonus. Compaq took over HP with HP’s money. Thanks Carly.
