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.

1. But wasn't the Alpha a better chip than PA-RISC will ever be (moot now they're moving to Itanium but still . . .) ?
2. Isn't Tru64 still a better Unix than HP-UX will ever be (probably had more customers too before Compaq/HP started to provaricate over the future OS roadmap) ?
Didn't anybody ask :
