A collection of emails from the MIT mailing list UNIX-HATERS. Dates from 1987-1994, so mostly pre-linux. A fascinating read of very smart people frustrated with Unix and it's shortcomings compared to forgotten contemporaries like Lisp Machines and other proprietary OSes. Even back then there was a group of people fighting the narrative that Unix is amazing. Some things have improved, while most criticisms are as valid today as they were 30 years ago.
