Along with DEC Ultrix, and (kind of OSF/1, Tru64, etc). There were lots of other proprietary BSD based systems in the 80s as well.

- emmelaich 10y agoYeah, certainly Ultrix was one of the closest. Many diverged heavily though - HP/UX etc. I guess they're confining the history to non-commercial (albeit semi-closed source) versions.
- NelsonMinar 10y agoUltrix forked off BSD 4.2. It was the Unix I learned first, and working with it when the civilized world was working off BSD 4.3 variants made life really awkward.
- drewg123 10y agoUltrix was my 2nd unix, after SunOS 4.1 on a massively over-committed Solbourne. I preferred Ultrix just because the machines were in a closed lab, and "faster" because there weren't 300 undergrads trying to compile their projects all at the same time on an overheating Solbourne...
