("Small and quite" what?  You meant, I presume, "small and quiet".)
That's "true UNIX System V" as in "true UNIX System V, Release 1".
Not System V, Release 2, and definitely not System V, Release 3,
which from what various AT&T Information Systems representatives have
said will be out sometime this summer or so (I believe that's what
Jack Scanlon, or was it Mike DeFazio, said in response to the rumors
circulating around UniForum).  "Release 3.0" of UNIX *for the UNIX
PC* is still based on S5R1, although bits of S5R2 may have crept into
it.  (For that matter, so is the UNIX for the IBM RT PC.)
