In its initial concept, OpenVMS (then VAX/VMS) sought to provide the functionality and capabilities of a mainframe-class system at a small fraction of the size and cost, while at the same time providing higher levels of reliability and integrity. These goals were achieved by what has become OpenVMS' hallmark, an
emphasis on integrity and architectural leverage. Note: This is an entry to our OS Contest.

Aye. Very well written article, very clear. Cleared up the 'Open' part of OpenVMS for me, finally, although the logical name translation is still a bit of a mystery to me.
Just curious: does OpenVMS have a large userbase, and is it being actively developped still?
