Windows [Previous ¦ Next]
Landmark Graphics said it sold to Microsoft the brand name Windows, from its early graphical front-end to applications and databases called OpenWindows (note that Sun Microsystems has a documentation interface by the same name). The prefix "Open" survived as a brand name in Landmark's flagship petroleum database OpenWorks and OpenExplorer (see Enigma), until the advent of a company called OpenSpirit and a show called Oracle OpenWorld.
