I remember the 386 version of BSD about the same time as Linux was
almost, but not quite, usable.  I ran BSDI stuff from 1992 til Plan 9
was released in 1995.  Before that I ran my port of V7 with streams
and my version of TCP running on Motorola 68K VME boards.  I don't
think there was any waiting going on.
