Ed: Becareful you will start up another war. I think it is a problem that IBM can decide and clarify quite nicely. IBM should IMO do a 360 and say USS means unformatted system services. My rather poor memory says unformatted was in use before Unix came into general use. FWIW the UNIX people are usurping the acronym and are playing the elephant in the room here.
