A few months ago I posted a similar enquiry to comp.databases, and the
best summary of responses there might be "What the ____ is RDM?"
Considering that most of the folks who read USENET news work on UNIX
systems, although some shops may also have VMS, it shouldn't have been
too surprising a response.  As far as I am aware, RDM isn't available
in a UNIX flavor; it is avialable for just about all of DEC's os's,
and for MSDOS.

RDM is a product of Interactive Technology Inc., Beaverton, Oregon.
A committee in our org has just recommended that it be adopted as the
corporate standard for microcomputers, primarily, I believe, because of
it's upward compatibility to VMS, which is to become the corporate
"backbone" system. 

I would appreciate hearing about any experiences with this product.
