It seems that the very early stuff like v5 was strictly UNIBUS and that the first version of Unix that supported QBUS was v7m (please correct me if this is wrong). I was thinking that the MicroPDP-11's were all QBUS and that it would be easier to run a Unix on a MicroPDP because they are the most compact. So I figured I would try to obtain a Unix v7m distribution tape image. I see the Jean Huens files on tuhs but I'm not sure what to do with them. I have hopes to eventually run a Unix on real hardware but for now I'm going to stick with simh. It seems like DEC just didn't make a desktop that could run Bell Labs Unix, e.g. we can't just grab a DEC Pro-350 and stick Unix v7 on it. Naturally I'll still have fun checking out Unix v5 on the emulator but it would be nice to eventually run a Unix with all the source code at hand on a real machine.
