Weenix
/wee'niks/ An {ITS} fan's derogatory term for {Unix}, derived
from {Unix weenie}. According to one noted ex-{ITS}er, it is
"the operating system preferred by Unix Weenies: typified by
poor modularity, poor reliability, hard file deletion, no file
version numbers, case sensitivity everywhere, and users who
believe that these are all advantages". Some {ITS} fans
behave as though they believe Unix stole a future that
rightfully belonged to them.
