There was a Pick operating system.  Still is, actually.  It had nothing
to do with Data General.  "Basix," I don't recall.

UniVerse is a dbm system that was derived from the Pick operating
system, IIRC.  I actually was nearly a UniVerse DBA.  Until the company
for which I worked at the time ran out of money before finishing the
deployment of their new ERP system.  Took classes at a place called
JES.
