Bell Labs, formerly AT&T Bell
Labs and now under the umbrella
of the $21 billion Lucent
Technologies, has announced
Inferno, software they hope will
soon be everywhere. It can run
on a wide variety of platforms,
from remote controls up to
workstations and servers. It
offers operating system
functionality, a
platform-independent and
buzzword-compliant language
called Limbo, a virtual machine
termed Dis, and, to make the
marketer's product naming
nightmare complete, a network
protocol called, affectionately
enough, Styx.
Five years ago today in Suck.
