Jolitz released 386BSD. In contrast to 386BSD, it was solid,
installed easily, and cost $1000 (with source; I think there were
cheaper binary-only options). It blew Interactive UNIX out of the
water. This was a Beta, so I sent reports which I have published at

Agreed. We used BSD/386 and BSD/OS pretty heavily at Case. We ran a
significant portion of the infrastructure services on it. It was
solid.
