Sure is. We have a test-floor full of Unisys 1100 and 2200 boxes downstairs.

UNISYS also continues to sell the Burroughs A-series processors, and a whole
line of relabeled 680x0 and 80x86 UNIX boxes (Sequent, ARIX, CT) as well as
the older Burroughs relabeled BTOS/CTOS bookshelf machines. And all run
MAPPER (one of those lives-in-its-own-world-database-languages that they
call 4GLs) :->.
