52 years ago on November 3, 1971, Unix saw its first edition released.
Initially a single-tasking system, the system was dubbed "Unics" "Uniplexed Information and Computing Service" or "eunuchs." Unix's influence grew as it made its way to other institutions, such as universities.
Continuous enhancements led to increased portability, with ports to various machines like the Interdata 8/32
