A/UX
A/UX is an operating system UNIX born in the Années 1980, based on the System V of AT&T.
Proposed by Apple for the computers of the range Macintosh and Quadra, its characteristic was to be a portable environment on various machines, thus the applications developed for one were easily adaptable on another, the goal being to make cohabit the applications pure UNIX, the applications X Window, the applications Mac OS and even the applications DOS emulated on only one machine.
Unix being Multi-task, all these applications worked at the same time. It was however quickly abandoned because few applications were developed. It functioned under Network File System and used the graphical interface of the Macintosh. It is now replaced by Mac OS.
A/UX required a Macintosh II equipped with a Processeur 68030 or 68020 and one PMMU, 4 Mo of RAM and 80 Mo of hard drive.
