I found it interesting that Amdahl UTS was used by designers of the 386.
"we instituted Unix for the 386 design. Again if management knew what
we were doing they wouldn't have let us do it."

"Given Pat was a bit of a UNIX hacker at the time, he set up the entire
design team inside of his CMS account which was running the UTS UNIX
environment from Amdahl."
