	Xenix
		Xenix was not sold directly to end users, rather than Microsoft licensing it to computer manufacturers who would then port it to their systems.
		Xenix varied from its System 7 origins by incoporating elements from BSD, and soon possessed the most widely installed base of any UNIX flavor due to the popularity of the inexpensive x86 processor, although the port created for Tandy computers proved to be more robust.
		Microsoft is said to have used Xenix on VAX minicomputers extensively within their company as late as 1992.

		XENIX System V, Version 2.1.3 by the Santa Cruz Operation (SCO), is a flexible and powerful multi-user, multi-tasking, operating system.
		If "badtrk" isn't run,you run the risk of having your XENIX partition at the beginning of a bad track and not knowing where it is for repartitioning.
		To test a communications package with XENIX try these settings: Parity - none, space or mark; BAUD - up to 9600 on a serial direct connection between micros, and up to modem or line capacity, whichever is lower for a modem connection.

	Xenix - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Xenix was a version of the Unix operating system, licensed by Microsoft from ATandT in the late 1970s.
		Trusted Xenix was a variant developed by Trusted Information Systems which incorporated the Bell-LaPadula model of multilevel security, and had a multilevel secure interface for the STU-III secure communications device (that is, an STU-III connection would only be made available to applications running at the same privilege level as the key loaded in the STU-III).
		It was still in use at least as of 1995.

	The Death of Xenix \| Linux Journal
		Xenix serves as a workhorse for small businesses--places where you might find a dozen or so dumb terminals and a couple of printers plugged into a system running FoxBase or other small database system.
		Xenix's networking support, while never very functional, no longer exists as an upgrade in any case--someone wanting to add even a single Xenix box to telnet or share services is out of luck.
		Many Xenix users may be uncomfortable upgrading their unlimited-users license to a limited-user OpenServer system, or paying about $4,000 to upgrade to an unlimited-user OpenServer.

		If you don't have either of these, look through the files in /etc/perms for them; in Xenix 2.3.4, you will find one of each, which will be in fact the exact same file but on two different diskettes.
		Xenix will use up to 16 MB; Unix will use much more (how much depends on what version; check your release notes).
		SCO Xenix and all versions of SCO Unix up to and including 3.2v4.2 use 16-bit unsigned integers for inode numbers, so there is a limit of slightly under 65 536 inodes available per filesystem.

		In spite of hdinit asking what size your hard disk is, detailed investigation into Xenix 3.0 reveals that it assumes that a Lisa 2/10 has a 10 MB drive, and a Lisa 2/5 has a 5 MB drive.
		If you use a 5 MB drive on the built-in port of a 2/10, hdinit appears successful, but Xenix attempts to write past the end of the drive, generating an error and interfering with management of the file system.
		Perhaps the Xenix 3.0 driver was written for an earlier version of the Apple ProFile Z8 software and the later versions also suffer from the differences.

		The front and back of the Xenix Illuminated Keyboard's box is designed perfectly, and provides all the information you might need to know before you purchase it.
		Inside the box, the Xenix board was secured with a cardboard placeholder to keep it from shifting or getting damaged during shipping.
		From the side view, you can see just how slim the Xenix really is. Even the keys are flat and inset like a laptop setup.

		Well, since Xenix makes an EL keyboard also, I guess it would compliment an EL keyboard.
		I suppose either would be a good choice if you wanted to hop on the "small EL keyboard" bandwagon.
		This one is branded Xenix, who knows who they are, but Xenix should take the hit today.

	Computer Source Magazine: Under The Hood: Part 8
		XENIX was originally developed on a DEC Virtual Address Extension (VAX) running the Virtual Memory System (VMS) and a PDP-11 running UNIX V7, albeit now using Microsoft’s own in-house minicomputers, and then converted into assembly language specific to the new 16-bit Motorola 68000 and Intel 8086 microprocessors.
		This put XENIX at the high end of the microcomputer market, which was still dominated by 8-bit machines, but well below the lowest end of the minicomputer market.
		SCO XENIX 5.0 was updated to conform to AT&T UNIX System V Release 0 (SVR0) in 1983, for which SCO brought its own rights to the UNIX source code.

	The History and Future of Microsoft Operating Systems: XENIX
		In 1980, Microsoft announces its XENIX operating system, an "enhanced version of the UNIX operating system." It is designed to run on Intel 8086, Zilog Z8000, Motorola M68000 and DEC PDP-11 series.
		In the announcement, Microsoft also said they would port all of their existing software to XENIX (that is, develop new versions of the software that will run on XENIX), and that it would be able to run UNIX software as well.
		They licensed XENIX to computer equipment manufacturers such as SCO, Tandy and Intel who sold it to consumers after branding it with their own name.

	SCO History
		Under SCO Xenix and SCO Unix, tcp/ip was an extra package that did not come with the base operating system.
		I heard once that someone upgraded a Xenix system by replacing the Xenix kernel with a Linux kernel but leaving all of the Xenix binaries and scripts in place.
		In general, most SCO Xenix and SCO Unix binaries will run under both SCO OpenServer and under Linux as long as they do not depend on the kernel's memory layout (for example, programs like top, u386mon, and monitor) and do not make tricky ioctl calls (for example, programs like kermit and bash).

		In fact, IBM had planned to offer Xenix as an option for its AT computers in 1984 with Dumb Terminals hooked up to it for multi-user access.
		Yeah one of my business partners used to work at a "Jack In The Box" around the time Xenix was popular, and they used it in the kitchen to place orders.

		In late 80th early 90th XENIX had became a major version of Unix for hobbyists, BBS operators and Usenet (for example almost all USSR Usenet was running on XENIX).
		Microsoft never released XENIX for 386 because of his work on OS/2 which was essentially a Unix replacement on desktop.

	Extreme Mhz :: View topic - In House Review: Xenix Illuminated Multimedia Keyboard
		It's a Xenix LG-KB602 which is the silver version of the keyboard you reviewed.
		The reason I mentioned the problems using the Xenix for games is because I think alot of the people who buy these illuminated keyboards are gamers looking for something they can use in the dark.
		At the time, tactile response was a huge selling point for their electric typewriters, so the standards carried over into the first PC keyboards.

		On the other hand, the Xenix Illuminated Keyboard would make for an excellent portable replacement for laptop users who travel consistently, or for people who just enjoy talking on messenger programs for extended amounts of time at night.
		Logisys has crammed them together into the bottom of the casing, and due to the closeness and size of the buttons, it is nearly impossible to use them for gaming.
		The placement and size of the W, A, S, and D keys are all proportionately placed for ease of use, unlike the arrow keys.

		Xenix, a company who doesn't seem to have a web presence, has a potentially gimmicky and cool mouse, no pun intended.
		It comes with a small fan, and is lit by LED's.
		That isn't a Xenix keyboard by the way, but is a FlexiGlow keyboard which is similar but not exactly the same.

		I kept the Xenix hard drive handy, in case there was some more trouble in the upgrade.
