Well, I think I have finally received all the responses to
my article about a month ago.  I am posting the summary
here and will mail all the responses I got to those who requested
them.

The following is the number of people who said they liked a particular OS.
Total number of responses = 50
	UNIX		    33.5
	VMS		     5.5
	TOPS-20		     2.5
	VM/CMS		     2
	NOS		     1
	AEGIS		     1
	ITS		     1
	RDOS		     1
	SCOPE-2		     1
	DUAL MACE	      .5
	CP/M		      .5
	TOPS-10		      .5
The following were mentioned but not generally prefered
	MVS,MSDOS,RSX-11M,MARC,CP-V,RTE-IVB,KRONOS,MACE,MCP,RSTS-E
	TRSDOS,ISIS,RMX86,TSS,MULTICS,HS-DOS,ASTRA,MVT,OS/8,OS/9
	MVS/TSO,EXEC 8,COS,DOS(several,machines),SCOPE,DTSS
The question of why people liked a particular OS was very subjective
and can not be summarized very easily.
