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.

Did anyone notice that he admitted that he prefered to use Apple OS X as a desktop at home? Very interesting, though I am not personally an Apple fanatic, and my PC and printer are coincidentlly from HP. :-)
I also was a bit annoyed by his calling BSD "one of the GNUs". Even RMS wouldn't call BSD "GNU/BSD"; although it assimilated some GNU tools much of it's userland and all of it's kernel is BSD. (If it weren't for gcc being better, for example, it might still be using a non-GNU open source compiler early non-encumbered *BSD came with; and *BSD's libcs are not from GNU either...) I guess such terms as "the GNUs" make sense if you're trying to distinguish a propritary Unix from the free competition to laypeople, but he should have known better than to make such gross oversimplifactions on a OS enthusiast site. :-)
