more, the SGI machines ran around $50,000, Sun systems ran around that 
same price.  Average home user couldn't afford that.  So, I do see where 
Linux could have killed off UNIX vendors.

A lot of the other non-UNIX vendor like Data General, Apollo, and others 
just disappeared.  Some of these companies weren't aware of the trend 
then and just went down the tubes.

Even those who switched to Unix didn't necessarily last. The problem was 
that PC processing power and RAM and disk simply swamped the 
minicomputer market. And even the mainframe market.

IBM saw the writing on the wall and got out of hardware mostly. Others 
did not.

That is basically my conclusions as well after digging in a bit more.

A VAX 8840 would kick the poop out of most systems at that time 
and cost around $1.6 million by the time all was said and done.

IBM systems with the same performance could cost $12-20 million 
depending on features and DASD capacity.

DG got bought by EMC.  They had some good stuff but they were 
late to the mini market and there was just no way for them to 
catch up.

Apollo priced themselves out of the market with rigid licensing 
and failed to see the mini trucks coming that ran over them.  HP 
bought them, killed the line, and now uses the name for HPC.

Sun just plain stunk in terms of performance at the time.  Good 
box, weak I/O, no cheap small customer storage solutions.  
Servers were reliable.

SGI good stuff, some still running today. Lousy marketing.

Very true, but the SGI sounded a bit way overpriced.
I read somewhere someone called solaris slowaris.

There was some other thing that my uncle mentioned that you don't see 
anymore is the wineing and dineing of potential customers.
He called it the "Good ol Boys Club".

Something else to consider.  With the exception of DEC & Sun, 
the other platforms lacked a decent interface for data exchanges 
with dissimilar systems.

years ago I was asked to add email capability to 'our new IBM' which was 
running IBMs then unix offering. The customer pointed to a chest freezer 
covered in glue* - "that's the 21 year old system 38 it's replacing".
"It" was a PC minitower. Apparently it could run all the old cobol and 
rpg quite adequately...

*the business was bookbinding.

That's what happens, when you have a bunch of evil businessmen,
jockeying for position, trying to gain an unfair advantage over the
competition.

Why slug it out, and actually work for a living, in a purely
competitive market, when there is much bigger money to be made, if you
can become the "standard" or the "killer app", or the killer app's
"host"?

It almost becomes an "all or nothing" game, with big winners and big
losers.

Somehow, it sort of looks like "Money is the root of all evil".

Anyway, I agree with you there as well.
