HP-SUX
     
         /H-P suhks/ An unflattering
        hackerism for {HP-UX} which features some truly unique
        bogosities in the {file system} internals and elsewhere (these
        occasionally create portability problems).  HP-UX is often
        referred to as "hockey-pux" inside HP, and one respondent
        claims that the proper pronunciation is /H-P ukkkhhhh/ as
        though one were about to spit.  Another such alternate
        spelling and pronunciation is "H-PUX" /H-puhks/.  Hackers at
        HP/Apollo (the former Apollo Computers which was swallowed by
        HP in 1989) have been heard to complain that Mr. Packard
        should have pushed to have his name first, if for no other
        reason than the greater eloquence of the resulting acronym.

        {ScumOS}, {sun-stools}.
