On AT&T UNIX System V/x86 Release 4.0 Version 2.1, if you type in:
find / -user install
You'll get:
find: no action specified
On other UNIX boxes I've seen, find not give you an error message but just
run for a while and the give you the prompt back. Since no action was
specified, no output was produced.
