[TUHS] AT&T 3b4000 (was Re: Old 386 Unix Versions)

[Clem Cole]

Yes, it was a full Single System Image (SSI) system -- one of the 3B4000's
SW architects was Tom Bishop, whom I'm still in contact (he's in the Austin
these days).  Those folk did a nice job.  FWIW:   When the 4000 project was
canceled in Indiana Hill, Tom joined us @ LCC to work on TNC.
