:ScumOS: /skuhm'os/ or /skuhm'O-S/ n. Unflattering hackerism
for SunOS, the UNIX variant supported on Sun Microsystems's UNIX
workstations (see also {sun-stools}), and compare {AIDX},
{Macintrash}, {Nominal Semidestructor}, {Open DeathTrap},
{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.
