 The SCO Group v
While the original SCO OpenServer operating system performs with all the reliability and dependability of other UNIX systems, it was originally designed for the initially low processing power of Intel chips.  Therefore, SCO OpenServer does not contain, or require, the same level of scalability and extensibility that other versions of UNIX offer.
The personal computing market for relatively low-priced desktop computers came to be dominated by the Windows operating system software operating on Intel-based processor chip sets.  Thus, the acronym “Wintel” became known in the industry as the combination of Windows and Intel for relatively low-priced desktop computers for the personal computing market.
UNIX is a computer operating system program and related software originally developed by ATandT Bell Laboratories (“ATandT”).  SCO/UNIX is a modification of UNIX and related software developed by SCO and its predecessors.  UNIX and SCO/UNIX are widely used in the corporate, or “enterprise,” computing environment.
