Two cents:  VENIX is unbundled but its manuals are not.  This is great.
I *hate* trying to find things in the XENIX documentation, because the
manuals have been reorganized so you never know which book to look in.
The VENIX manuals are organized as the good old Volume 1, Volume 2, etc.
Also, VENIX claims to support any valid hard disk type (which I haven't
been able to verify, since I have the vanilla disk).  XENIX *only* supports
the vanilla disk.
