SVR3 -- I remember running A/UX on a Mac Iisi with 8 megs of RAM (I came to
Apple to work with A/UX). One other version Chris missed was MAE, which ran
Mac software in emulation on Sun-3 boxes, back in the 68K days. Not exactly
unix on Mac hardware, but still very unix oriented. And I'm thinking back
through the mists of time (having just started my 13th year at Apple a
couple of weeks ago) -- and there's never been a time in all of those years
I didn't have a Unix box available that was running on Mac hardware (today,
I have my home server on a G3 running yellowdog, and my powerbook dualboots
YDL).
The biggest problems Apple's had with Unix is lack of commitment and
followthrough from the execs. Not exactly a problem any more, given it's now
the core OS at Apple... But it's always been here, even if we sometimes
felt we were hiding it from the rest of the company.. (giggle)
