Fujitsu has developed and markets a version of System V, R4 for
mainframe class machines.  This operating system is known as
"UXP/M".  There are several large systems running this O.S.
including the worlds largest UNIX system (an Australian 
Government Department support over 1,000 users on a single
machine).

UXP/M is a true UNIX implementation (as opposed to a shell 
under another operating system) for IBM 370 architecture machines.
Fujitsu also markets a full line of mainframe systems known as
the "M-Series".
