Yes many of them are excellent!
<2) I don't believe there is any sort of hobbyist distribution of Ultrix, ho
Ultrix was never released and I suspect never will. My guess is it has a
lot of the ATT/BSD code that was encumbered.

For those that don't have a video console the terminal only has to be
serial 9600/8/n/1 and supports Xon/Xoff meaning most anything works though
some aren't pretty. The terminal can be hard copy such as the LA100KSR.
