If you will check, the System V for VAXen is called "Holmdel 32V" or something like that. The PDP-11 version of Unix that DEC sells is called V7M11. Only AT&T gets to call Unix "Unix." The system I am typing this on right now is called "Microport System V/AT." No "Unix" in the name anywhere! -- /\ - "Against Stupidity, - {backbones}! /\/\ . /\ - The Gods Themselves - utah-cs!uplherc! / \/ \/\/ \ - Contend in Vain." - sp7040!obie! / U i n T e c h \ - Schiller - wes
