I'll probably be flamed and corrected, but...

DUAL was one of the first (the first?) commercial 68000/UNIX\(rg boxes
around and their v7 came from Unisoft and was called UNIPLUS+\(rg.  I 
never touched one of their boxes but I did see one at the Unisoft
porting lab.

A company named Megadata (Bohemia. NY) was also one of the 68000/UNIX
pioneers and their v7 came from Unisoft as well.  Megadata's boxes
were (are?) pretty good (I did many of the device drivers :-) ).
