Yeah, but you can't fly a train into a building under most circumstances. And the terminal infrastructure is much less expensive than an airport. The rail infrastructure, granted, is much more expensive than, well, the sky, but for the most part, it's almost in place already (modulo some track upgrading we'd need to do for high speed service, which you'd only want to do between major hubs anyway).
Of course, trains do have their own vulnerabilities to terror-style attacks, higher than automobiles, but not as bad as airplanes.
Last year, I spent a pleasant 5 days touring Germany by rail. Much better than flying or renting a car. I wish we'd get over ourselves here in the states and get a decent passenger rail system (Amtrak isn't anything close to what you'd call decent)
Actually, HP-UX first appeared in 1982 or so on the HP9000 platform (series 500, Focus chipset, 32-bit CISC machine customed-designed by HP). A different version appeared on the 9000 series 200, 68000-based workstation (later replaced by the series 300). HP-UX 1.0 refers the first version on HP-PA (now called PA-RISC).
And, of course, there's the old joke: "If Hewlett-Packard had been named Packard-Hewlett, what would they have called HP-UX?"
