Unix gives you just enough rope to hang yourself -- and then a couple
of more feet, just to be sure.
                -- Eric Allman

... We make rope.
                -- Rob Gingell on Sun Microsystem's new virtual memory.

Unix is a lot more complicated (than CP/M) of course -- the typical Unix
hacker can never remember what the PRINT command is called this week --

Unix is a Registered Bell of AT&T Trademark Laboratories.
                -- Donn Seeley

UNIX is hot.  It's more than hot.  It's steaming.  It's quicksilver

Unix is the worst operating system; except for all others.

        impotent, that now shows a surprising interest in making off
        with the workstation harem.

                -- Doug Gwyn

Unix will self-destruct in five seconds... 4... 3... 2... 1...
