  Very confident. The people who do the "*nix" cargo cult thing have never seen a SunOS machine and don't even know what a HPUX is.

    The linked trends suggest a revival of the term though. > The people who do the "*nix" cargo cult thing have never seen a SunOS machine and don't even know what a HPUX is. The meaning of words evolve over time though. Text is still broken into lines by "carriage return/line feeds" and is written on "hard disk" split up in "sectors".,. Over time people using these would not have seen a typewriter or even know what a platter is but may still use it to communicate effectively.
