To say that the history of Unix is long and convoluted would be a huge understatement. It started i's life as a gaming OS dressed as typesetting one in a forgotten alley in an research center, but soon became the most important idea in modern computing history. No other OS had such broad impact on how we work with computers. And despite that, it's mostly a forgotten name. It lives in it's ideas and licenses, but very rarely do we think about running Unix.
This site is a fanpage, and a love letter to computer history. To the brilliant minds and sneazy lawers. To the original, the followers, and imitators.
