Kernighan, Brian W. and Ritchie, Dennis M.; The C Programming Language,
     2nd edition; Prentice Hall, 1988.
     Pg. IV
     "This book was typeset (pic|tbl|eqn|troff -ms) in Times Roman and
     Courier by the authors, using an Autologic APS-5 phototypesetter
     and a DEC VAX 8550 running the 9th Edition of the UNIX(c) 
     operating system."

They didn't say whose machine it was, though.
In any case, no one would do a book meant to be widely read on something
as primitive as troff, would they? :-)
