Thank you for asking that, you've made my day.  I'm using the last true
UNIX ever released:  V7.  Not a Berklix mislabeled "UNIX Version 7",
mind you, but a real, honest Bell V7.  Since nobody has yet found the
cash to buy us something better, utzoo is an 11/44.  I'm quite aware that
this has its bad points -- 16-bit address spaces are no fun any more --
but it does mean that I can run true UNIX.  I don't know what I'd do if
they suddenly gave us a VAX... maybe go wail on Research's doorstep until
they slip me a V8 tape just to get rid of me... :-))))
