@lproven Oh yes, I couldn't remember the name of that Mark Williams Corporation product - Coherent. I really wanted to explore its potential, but my boss wouldn't spring the £99* for it, saying I could have a login on the Sequent running Dynix/ptx instead. But I thought that "unix" on commodity hardware for general purpose use, as you note, had a future.
* - I'm sure it was available in the UK at the time, at the usual £-$ equivalence
