And besides, the original Version 7 AT&T UNIX has been more or less
free for several years now, so if you don't like the forks, you are
welcome to run the real thing.

For your convenience, the OpenBSD project is even providing the
Version 7 manuals online:

  https://man.openbsd.org/UNIX-7/boot.8
  https://man.openbsd.org/?query=.&apropos=1&manpath=UNIX-7

In the unlikely case that you lack a PDP-11, i'm sure it will be
easy for you to port it to amd64.  After all, most of the system
was written in K&R C, so it should still compile, with some minor
adjustments.

Yours,
  Ingo
