SCO has a version that is for the 808[8,6] computes.  I think they 
now call it Xenix 86. If you _must_ have it, it is functional, but won't set
any record as far as benchmarks are concerned.  There were rumors at 
one time about support for EMS/EEMS.

I have a version from SCO called:

"Xenix Operating System
 version 3.0 release 1.0
 For the IBM Personal Computer XT"

This does work on the AT&T 6300, but I have no idea as to the current
product from SCO.
