Despite personal characturistics of Bell employees, you have to admit
that SCO XENIX at the time that Bell came out with their Microport
UNIX system was pretty scuzzy.  As someone who has been involed in
software ports to these systems, I can tell you that pre-2.1 (if I
remember properly) were pretty hokey.  XENIX has changed a lot (of
course both XENIX and MICROPORT are still SYS V :-(.
