" XENIX was a Microsoft port of SysV to early PCs. At some point in the
" 80s, it was transferred to SCO. I don't know what SCO's business was
" before XENIX, because XENIX (AKA SCO UNIX, AKA OpenServer) became their
" most important product. XENIX is notable in my mind for being one of the
" few operating systems to support 286 protected mode.
i've always thought that sco -was- the ms xenix group, spun off.
makes it all the odder they now own att unix. talk about the tail
wagging the dog...
