Well, it was before my time so i dont know the timeframe offhand.
I heard of PC-IX only because MINIX was developed in PC-IX
(ast, _Operating_Systems_, appendix D, 1987) - The AST book does not
say which year he started to develop MINIX, never mind which year
PC-IX was released.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/INTERACTIVE_Systems_Corporation says
1977 < Y < 1988

PC-IX was available in 1984, and
"This product preceded XENIX and ran on a monochrome PC/XT"

Hmm, the quote above doesnt seem to match the Levenez chart
 http://www.levenez.com/unix/
which however does appear to give us a date of 1982 for PC/IX.

(back to work for me)
