->We at the Technische Universitaet (TU) Muenchen had a 68k based Unix port
->called tunix.  More, in Bavarian dialect 'tu nix' means 'Do Nothing', which
->was a very good descriptive name for that system! :-)

when we first ported u**x to our boxes, we came up with a variety
of names. an interesting one was deived from 'nix' and our company
name PCS. someone suggested pe*ix!

we decided to rather call it munix after that;-)
