   I am a graduate student in Management Information Systems at the University
 of Virginia.  The MS in MIS program at the McIntire School of Commerce, UVA,
 is relatively new.  This semester it offered a course in UNIX literacy and 
 Micro Focus COBOL, which will be followed-up next semester by a course in 
 ORACLE and INFORMIX.
   I have heard, in more than one occasion, that UNIX operating system is being used more and 
 more every day in the developing Management Information Systems.  I would 
 appreciate if someone could shed some more light on this matter.  What I would like to know is how much of this "rumor" is really true?

  Thanks in advance.
