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, 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.
