Peter Weiner was the founder, in 1977, of the first commercial UNIX  
company, UNIX Systems and Services, Inc.

Shortly after incorporation, and prior to signing the first  
commercial UNIX license, with binary sublicense rights, the  
company's name was changed to INTERACTIVE Systems Corporation, at  
the request of Western Electric lawyers.

He also was the first holder of the California license plate UNIX.   
No compaints were ever received, and the license plate is currently  
held by Ted Dolotta, now President of Softbank America Inc.
