Xenix grown into a business — the Unix that ran a million point-of-sale systems before the lawsuits made the name infamous.

SCO OpenServer was the small-business Unix of the 90s — the Xenix descendant on x86, running point-of-sale and back-office systems on millions of machines nobody thought about.\n\nThe SCO Group's 2003 Linux lawsuits destroyed the company's reputation; its actual product customers migrated away, and OpenServer survives in maintenance through Xinuos.
