Love some of the juicy pieces out of the story,

> The name QUNIX was a bit too close to the name UNIX for AT&T. The name of the system was changed to QNX in late 1982 following a Cease and Desist by AT&T.

Already not as nice as in the early days.

> While RV1 was limited to just C and x86 assembly language, the company was hard at work on BASIC, FORTRAN, and Pascal compilers that would utilize common code generators allowing for the mixed-use of languages without losing optimization.

Yet another example of previous polyglot compiler stacks attempts.

> UNIX systems come in more flavours than ice cream.

That was a fun one.
