The 3b2's were ok. I liked the ATT Unix PC, 3b1 (?). My roomate and
I in college both bought those and did a lot of hacking on them.

I doubt it - we (bitkeeper folks) still support sco and it sucks. It's
like time stood still and nothing was added.
I added TCP/IP to SCO which is some sort of sys v
thing (I think, it's
been a lot of years). I think Lachman (where I was working at the
time) did a lot of streams based TCP/IP, they may have done one for
the vax.
I've seen lots of sco stuff say it's SYSV... like Xenix 2.3.4 ... So I
guess it's not outside of that realm. It's too bad SCO never did
bundle the dev kit & networking or that Linux thing probably never
would have gained commercial traction.. but then that's just my wild
guess. But why would
you want it? It was a steaming pile of sh*t.
Morbid curiosity I guess... seeing as it's basically all but dead. I
guess the SYSV stuff we ran on the 3B2's was more modern, and 'usable'
just as SYSVr3 (AIX) certainly was/is.
