Uryvek z comp.unix.xenix.sco FAQ (http://www.unicom.com/FAQ/sco-xenix):

 QA1.  What is the difference between Unix and Xenix?

     Xenix is Unix -- or at least one flavor of it.  In the late 70's,
     Microsoft licensed the Unix sources from AT&T and ported them to
     a number of platforms.  In those days, AT&T would license the Unix
     software but not the Unix name, thus each company had to invent
     their own name.  Microsoft picked Xenix.  Microsoft did not sell
     Xenix to end users.  Instead, they licensed the software to OEMs
     (Intel, Tandy, Altos, SCO, etc.) who provided a finished end-user
     package.  Microsoft no longer supports Xenix, and in fact never
     even offered a 286 or 386 version.

Takze pravdu mate oba :-)

A jak to tak vypada, tak SCO porad Xenix vyviji pod nazvem OpenServer a
prodava ho. Viz http://www.computing.net/dos/wwwboard/forum/4324.html.
