Are you sure? I'm not sure exactly which models I used, but I definitely
remember running Unix (UTek) on Tektronix workstations when I was at Oregon
State U (we had a pile of them in the Outreach Services office, and they ran
a really ancient version of the X Window System).
I'm pretty sure that UTek had virtual memory :-) (tho, I don't remember
if it was a BSD system or not).
