Plural for Unix
"Unix" is an ordinary English word (please, no flames from AT+T, I'm
discussing grammar and not proprietary rights) and consequently forms
ordinary English plurals.  In particular, it is not derived from Latin
and therefore does not form -ices plurals.  The plural of Unix is Unixes.
