The same is almost true for Unix based, since some major vendors have
simply dropped all support (for example Intergraph, which has made
some desastrous strategic choices in the past (leaving RISC and Unix 
for i386 and being swept out of the market)... and now sticks to M$
products... It seems I'm not ready to be a CEO because my brains are
unable to understand some things...;).
