Unix Version 6, from David Lillienfeld

July 24, 2012 |

I still long for Unix Version 6 from the mid 1970s. It was the first operating system that I tinkered with. Bell Labs had created a masterpiece, and between it and the C programming language (still the basis for the internet), I found a system able to do almost anything asked of it.

It's nice that Unix lives on, particularly in a widely used system, Linux.
