Historical Note
CUBE (Cooperating Users of Burroughs Equipment) was formed from two earlier user's groups: DUO (Datatron Users Organization) and CUE. At one time there was another users group: BUG (Burroughs Users Group), but it is unclear how long this group lasted or what it was in relation to other groups. It might have been the original name of CUBE.
