After 18 years of running Metropolis Khalsa accounting and a custom
MRP package in d/basic, we are finally planning on dumping the old
system this year.
Just joking... AMOS is alive and well.

I would guess that there are around 1,000 in the UK - we have 5 running our
business applications

I know that in 2001 I had about 100 AMOS Autolog units sold. In 1997,
there were at about four times that number. To be fair, my units sold
dropped off when Soft Machines became a part time enterprise. But to
be honest, the reason it became a part time enterprise was because I
wasn't selling as many units.
I would guess that of the 52,000 assumed Motorola based machines,
perhaps up to 25-30% are still on active duty. My guess is the
attrition rate for active units far exceeds the new sales.

Thanks for the input folks. I wasn't trying to dis the old machine,
really. Twenty years is a long time for one machine to be up and
running, although it has gone through several upgrades over the years.
I was just trying to get a flavor for the market. I mean, you don't
exactly see any ads for Alpha Micro system administrators on Dice or
Monster these days. I know it used to be a close-knit community with
very passionate participation. Do you think our collection of
AMOS.LOG (back to Aug 84) is worth anything?
(No Jeff, I'm not cutting on your editorial skills :)
