Phillips of the BTL Legal and Patent Division, "UNIX" is not a noun, but an adjective that describes Bell System software distributed under license. Thus, "UNIX system" is correct, "UNIX operator" is incorrect; "UNIX editor" is correct, "UNIX environment" is incorrect. Thus, the plural of "UNIX system" is "UNIX systems."
