Apollo I remember well, but despite their protestations, they were not UNIX
boxes - not even close. Their shtick was "Domain". In the end, despite its
apparently wonderful distributed computing facilities, this killed them
(and the carcass was eaten by HP). I remember friends working on their
System Release 10, which had as its motto and guiding principle: "JLRU -
Just Like Real UNIX" (not).

There were other OS's around at that time, too: UNOS (CRDS's best guess as
to what UNIX was, without AT&T license or source code; kinda like Linux),
Pick, "S-1" (what a marketing fantasy that vaporware was!), Xenix (it was
V7 once, but Microslop put its own special smell on everything and didn't
track the rest of the world at all, fixed no bugs, and ultimately gave that
stinking pile to SCO; kinda like how IBM created AIX...), oh, and
Convergent Technologies! I was trying to remember their name last night.
They had some wierd OS of their own. What ever happened to them?

but enough reminiscing...
