Before anyone starts another holy war over tiny technical points, plaese
read this carfully. I will try and word it as to be as unambiguous as
possible:
I use (and love) unix on quite a few different machines. The SV machines
are primarily 3B1's, 3B2's and 3B20's. I would like the machine that I use at
home to provide the same environment that I am use to at work. Of course,
this all has to be done on a budget. IBM machines and clones are cheap, BUT...
1) Is SCO and IBM Xenix the same as AT&T Unix System V.2.
2) How close is PC/IX to System III.
The point is that I want Unix, not something that looks a whole lot like
Unix, on my home machine. Before you flame me for whatever reason, please
realize that I have never used Xenix before and I am not fully enlightened
in the mysteries of the IBM PC ( I much prefer my 3Bn's, Sun's and Masscomp's).
Thanks for the help.
