His interview with Unix Today is arguably a better point of reference[0], here's a pull quote:
> we believe very strongly that these Unix battles are foolish, that they're not serving our needs as the Unix community and, more importantly, the problems with the Unix marketplace are not that there are three versions of Unix, all 5 percent apart, that need to battle it to the death for one version. The problem is that Unix is only part of what is considered a modern operating system
He didn't start a company to sell Unix machines out of some malice toward the bearded. He started it as the Next Step after Unix as it was at the time. Rather successfully in the long term.
