What? Don't you mean 52? (Or actually almost 54 by now?)
So, back in 1994, Peter H. Salus wrote a book "A Quarter Century of
Unix", and then an article with the title "Unix at 25" for the October
1994 issue of Byte Magazine.
At the in-person MUUG meeting last week, one of the give-aways was a
print edition of that issue of Byte. For those who are sad they missed
out in this prized issue, here's an electronic copy of the Salus article...

And for those interested in a copy of his book (either purchasing a
print copy, or downloading the PDF), you can find out more about it here...

Enjoy the trip down memory lane!
