The latest Sequent multiprocessor boxes will be based on this architecture,
but Sequent are keeping it quiet. Presumably they don't want customers of
their NS32032 based systems (like us) to find out.

The Sequent OS - DYNIX - is primarily BSD with a few SysV add-ons. It has
the notion of dual universe, but I don't think it is as well developed as
Pyramid's.
