It all started at Bell Labs
1957 use BESYS operating system
1965 Bell Labs joined with GE and MIT to
create MULTICS (Multiplexed Information and
Computing Service)
1969 MULTICS was left by Bell Labs
Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie wrote an
operating system for a DEC PDP-7. The system was
called Uniplexed Information and Computing
Service or UNICS, later called UNIX
History goes on

1977 UNIX is ported to a non-DEC system
1978 Bill Joy introduced a new version of
UNIX, the 1BSD (Berkeley Software
Distribution version 1)
1980 4BSD becomes the first version of UNIX
to incorporate TCP/IP
1983 GNU project is announced by Richard
