OH NOOOooooo!  Call your lawyer quick!!  Methinks I hear the tread of...
can it be...  SATAN??  no it's just AT&T.  You are absolutely forbidden
to use the U-word without stating that it is a trademark of AT&T (that's
why you will see it referenced as UN*X).  Even if you are licensed to
have the source code and can sell the OS built by that code, you cannot
call it UNIX* (oops, I said it).

*UNIX is a registered trademark of AT&T.

By the way, please don't think that my opinions (or any opinions for
that matter) belong to my employer (and I don't work for AT&T).  Thanks.
