Yes MS did. check out http://www.ugu.com/sui/ugu/show?I=xenix.history&F=1111111111&G=Y, but that doesn't mean they ever got it.Please, nobody ran for cover. As a matter of fact MS has been chasing UN*X ever since it entered the server market, and just as they saw a gap in the market they could fill, along came Linux. Linux fills that gap and starts to reclaim LAN services like file and print sharing for UN*X. Now Linux is touching the desktop, and MS is trying to figure out how they can keep the inside track in that race.
My memory could be waaaay off, but didn't microsoft have a version of Unix called Xenix? or something like that back in i don't know, maybe early 80s?
