Tru64 featured AdvFS, which was awesome for the time (pre-ZFS).<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;AdvFS" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;AdvFS</a>

Surprisingly Tru64 only reached end-of-life in December of 2012, with the last release happening in 2010. Depressingly, some of the modern software I write at work is required to be compatible with Tru64 5.0 as some of our customers are still running that OS.

The article that&#x27;s linked to is about a Soviet Unix clone. It&#x27;s pretty cool, too.

The MicroVAX II was alleged to have this etched into some revs, in Cyrillic: &quot;MicroVAX: when you care enough to steal the very best&quot;

This link isn&#x27;t for a post on Tru64 but rather:<p>&quot;Unix OS archaeology – Soviet UNIX clone DEMOS pt.2&quot;<p>Also interesting but perhaps correct the URL in the title?
