Unfortunately, this OS keeps changing names... OSF/1 was renamed to
Digital Unix in order to emphasize the owner (when the name of DEC was
changed to Digital), but when Compaq bought Digital, they could not
just keep it. So they paid an army of marketing monkeys whho type on a
keyboard until the name Tru64 emerged...
You could maybe put the three names :)
