These things come up in the interview process, and in
the course of running a check. I don't see any reason
to include all that clutter in the resume.

The only trouble is, what if the people doing the background check don't contact you when they can't find the company? What if they assume that you're lying and simply stop considering you?

It's not really much trouble to put "Burroughts (Unisys)" on your resume, and it may help you. So why not do it?
