To old BTL or AT&T folks or anyone else who might know.

I wonder. IBM introduced the IBM PC in August of 1981. That was years after a non-memory managed version of Unix was created by Heinze Lycklama, LSX. Is anyone on this list familiar with Bell Labs management thoughts on selling IBM on LSX rather than "dos"? While the anti-trust settlement was a couple years in the future, someone at AT&T must have been thinking about possibilities after a breakup.

The key for all of us, in this list and else where in the reset of the UNIX industry is to try to avoid rewriting history, but to understand what went down and accept it, and move on.

In that light, let's start a new thread: "My Favorite Usenix Papers." Change the subject line. No fair including one of your own on the list :)
