	I'm sorry, but 30 years ago UNIX was widely used as a development
Plaltform as well as for production systems.  As of 1982 or so commercially 
supported and open source UNIX and derivatives included  AIX, XENIX, Eunice,
2 versions of Berkeley, SunOS, PC/IX, QNX, UniPlus, System III, Ultrix, 
and probably others.

	Prior to 1992 when the ATT suit was settled, there was no free UNIX.
I don't recall it ever being "the thing to get" until Linux began to grab
headlines, and then of course people wanted Linux.  What would have been the
point of putting it in a hobbyist magazine?  You needed real hardware to run 
it, DEC or IBM or TI or some such...  3B1 was the smallest thing I know that
ran UNIX in those days.  Weco chip...  You could run Xenix or Microsoft UNIX
on a 386 but it kinda sucked.

	UNIX didn't exist other than in the commercial segment, excepting
the work at Berkeley.  The reason Linus wrote Linux was because there was 
no available UNIX.
