SUPER-UX and its cousin ESOS are likely to be lost to history. SUPER-UX was a UNIX variant used on NEC's SX line of vector supercomputers up until Linux was adopted. ESOS was the operating system for the Earth Simulator and the Earth Simulator 2. Many older Cray systems- and this included the CDC 6600 and 7600- ran the operating system in the I/O processors to allow the main processor to be free to work on computing tasks. This was also true of many CDC CYBER systems.

Whenever you have a tape in hand that was created on a UNIX machine, you can safely assume it has been created with TAR, the Tape ARchiver. So, the only thing you need to do in theory is to read it with a TAR program on any platform (provided of course, you have a tape drive that can read the tape and you have drivers for that tape drive on some host OS). I used TAR even on OS/2 for making backups. Tape drives were also common on MS-DOS.

COS is one thing, UNICOS which supposedly is more UNIX-like another. Under the hood Cray machines were tuned for the most extreme performance including rather simple memory management units. Iow, Cray vector machines had no PMMU unlike anything that is running a modern "real" UNIX or Linux. And that difference meant porting any software that was doing its own memory management had the potential to be ... entertaining. There were other differences and no I'm not Cray bashing, after all I used to have Cray email address 🙂 Things weren't really standardized in those days so porting between Unices was often non-trivial. But Cray certainly stood out. At the end Crays delivered earthshattering floatingpoint performance and that's what Cray users wanted.

Additionally, Parallels fully automates the annoying download and install process for you, making the installation completely painless. Regarding the experience: it’s not bad! Performance is acceptable, but I haven’t the opportunity to test any unusual apps on it. The x86 compatibility layer is much better too, since it finally supports 64 bit apps. Overall: 6/10.
