ScumOS
<abuse, operating system> /skuhm'os/ or /skuhm'O-S/ An Unflattering
hackerism for SunOS, the Unix variant once supported on Sun Microsystems's Unix
workstations.
Despite what this term might suggest, Sun was founded by hackers and still
enjoys excellent relations with hackerdom; usage is more often in exasperation
than outright loathing.
See also sun-stools. Compare AIDX, Macintrash, Nominal Semidestructor, Open
DeathTrap, HP-SUX.
