Not exactly.  In 1986 I moved from Austin to Palo Alto to work for ACIS on
4.2 and 4.3 BSD kernel and drivers.  For a while.  But then AIX absorbed
the Palo Alto group and ACIS died.  In 1991 I joined Apple to work on A/UX.
To my surprise AIX followed me to Apple too.  Now I'm on Rhapsody and I
doubt AIX will follow me again :-)
