Here's a computer lab at Dundee Institute of Technology (now Abertay
University), Dundee, Scotland around 1985:
http://stuff.offog.org/dct/torch-lab-c1985.jpg
It's unlikely that there was any Unix involved in that picture -- the
Torch machines pictured are modified BBC Micros with a Z80 coprocessor
so they can run a CP/M clone, and DIT's computer centre had a TOPS-20
system and several VMS machines at that point.
