Techopedia Explains UNIX 98

UNIX is an operating system (OS) formulated in 1969 at Bell Labs as an interactive time-sharing system. It was never a proprietary OS and is not owned by the leading computer companies. UNIX also is written in a standard language and is comprised of many popular ideas, which led UNIX to become the primary available open standard OS.
