Today we host an interview with Christophe de Dinechin, Software Architect in HP-UX (Software business unit, Infrastructure Solutions). Most of you already know HP-UX, the leading "traditional" UNIX today feature-wise (second only to Solaris in Unix market-share, mostly competing with AIX). With Christophe we discuss HP-UX's competition, the other... 5 OSes HP supports with its various products, the Itanium platform and more.

I won't buy anything from HP. My mom bought a monitor from them for $500 and it died on her two years later. It was worse quality than her eMachine. I'm not buying a workstation from some comapny who can't provide quality across the board. That is the point of a brand. If I buy something entry level from Sun or SGI I can be sure it will be top of the line (even if it is Intel or Linux).
