HomeFortune CookiesJargon File

ScumOS /skuhm'os/ or /skuhm'O-S/ n.

Unflattering
hackerism for SunOS, the BSD Unix variant supported on Sun
Microsystems's Unix workstations (see also sun-stools), and
compare AIDX, Macintrash,
HP-SUX. Despite what this term might suggest, Sun was
founded by hackers and still enjoys excellent relations with
hackerdom; usage is more often in exasperation than outright
loathing.
