My first unix was Ultrix, so simple, so clean and fast...
A friend had an account on some magical server with no disk quota or other limits, but also no software. I found out to get access you had to get a normal "account request form", under the "VMS" and "MVS" lines you'd write the name of this machine and draw a box next to it... (and of course check that box).
The system had nothing on it but a C compiler... Built cnews, trn, kermit, elm, etc...
These days a system with a 12mhz cpu and 24mb of ram and a 300mb disk is less than a cable modem...
You never forget your first....
