Huh! Had no idea "UnXis was formed when the operating assets of The SCO 
Group, which had been in bankruptcy for several years, were acquired in 
a public auction in April 2011 by Stephen L. Norris and a Middle East 
private equity group for the price of $600,000." (Wikipedia)

I sent an "enquiry" via www.xinuos.com; not expecting much since it 
looks like they moved to FreeBSD.

Other than porting WinNT to Alpha, I think this is the only time 
Microsoft actually spent effort on DEC hardware (unless they also 
developed Pathworks for OS/2 which is another item that cannot be found 
anywhere so far).

Guess this thread has to sleep here for now.

Thanks, Arne.
