No, the answer is "it depends". Most versions of Xenix are *not*
virtual mem operating systems. The 286 Xenix I'm sitting at isn't,
for a start. The 386 Xenix sat next to my desk at the office *is*
a virtual mem OS. I don't know about the 68000 xenices, not having
ever used one, but I doubt they are.
Anyway, this is .xenix.sco. SCO 8086 and 286 xenixes aren't. SCO 386
xenix is.
