Not just Unisys. There's also Groupe Bull. And don't forget the S/390 compatibles Fujitsu-Siemens, Hitachi and Fujitsu (the latter two in Japan only). In a sense, the HP systems running MP3000 are pretty darned close to the classic definition of mainframe...which is why I hope the OpenMPE group can convince HP to release the operating system under an open-source license.
