Bill, did you ever cross paths with Dan Nissen or Karen Nissen? Friends
from U. Wisconsin (and Karen also worked at WisDOT for a while after I
started there, before they both went off to MPLS.)

That's encouraging.

I will take back some of what I just wrote. While I was typing this I received
the download link email and it included this:
I doubt it is for hobbyists. I think it is to get people to look at it for the
upsell opportunity.
And why are people writing ‘UniSys’? Speaking as someone who was there during
the merger, it is ‘Unisys’.

This thread has been truly enlightening. I had no idea that UniSys had
hobbyist versions of both their Univac and Burroughs stuff available. I'll
have to give them both a try. Is there any software out there for them or
is the general idea that you're supposed to write your own?

Burroughs on MCP.
