The History of Xenix

Article note: I've read several histories about or including Xenix in the context of of Unix or Microsoft or microcomputers and it's such a complicated story that every take is different. This one weaves a pretty solid narrative. I don't have a good piece of popular period Xenix platform in my collection, a nice 386 Zenith that could be optioned with it, or a Tandy 16b or something would be a blast. I have some 486s that could probably be rigged, but unless you find just the right hardware it's a driver problem - and the suitable versions for 486s are from after Unix started that end-of-80s-beginning-of-90s modernization cycle.
