Hardly, AT&T Bell Labs, Indian Hill facility (6000+ employees) has (had?) a
PC/VI site license from CSS.  Some how I don't think that it really matters
if a company uses a product or not, I mean look at Microsoft and Apple, I'm
sure Microsoft owns more than a few copies of the etch-a-sketch emulator or
what ever it is they call the Mac/Lisa operating system.  Although I s'pose
that's backwards though, hmmm.
