I had to use a Burroughs mainframe for development during the first year of my CS course in 1983 - might have been interesting hardware but the user experience was ghastly - some awful thing called CANDE = although I did get a laugh out of all of the references to the MCP.
In retrospect I do wonder if they did that so that when we moved to Unix machines later in the course we'd really appreciate them!
MCP is still available from Unisys, which was formed by the "merger" of Burroughs and Sperry Univac.
It was first released in 1961 - is there any other software, particularly an OS, still in production after that long?
