In the mid-70s I was working at Sylvania WDL. We were looking for a real-time
OS for a PDP 11/45. Nothing at DEC. We checked with AT&T for UNIX and they
wanted $40K (I was told). Management said, "no way" and I was assigned the
task. I wrote a separated I&D-space (full memory) OS for our application,
which incidentally was written in Pascal. But that's another story.
