GECOS

After Honeywell acquired GE's computer division, GECOS-III was renamed GCOS 3 as heart of the 24-bits GE-400 series, and the hardware line was renamed to the H-6000 adding the EIS (enhanced instruction set, character oriented instead of word oriented).[31][32]

I would be happy to be informed otherwise, but I think this statement is wrong on several levels. I'm not sure GECOS ever ran on a 400 "The name GECOS was created to designate the operating system of General Electric's GE-635 system introduced in 1964. The acronym stands for General Electric Comprehensive Operating System."[1] Second, it was the GE-600 line that became the H-6000 systems.

deleted paragraph 2/27/2002

I deleted this as not relevant. I'll see if it fits in the Multics article and/or the GE600 article.

One notable use of GE600 hardware was the GE645 and it's virtual operating system Multics, written almost exclusively in the high-level language PL I and used for the United States Worldwide Military Command and Control System (WWMCCS) in the 1960s.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]
