I have two metal license plates; one for UNIX and one for ULTRIX.
Someone gave them to me; I believe that they came from a USENIX conference
and that DEC must have produced them.

One is green on white:

	Live Free or Die

		UNIX

	Trademark of Bell Labs*

The other is blue on white:

	Live Free or Die

		ULTRIX

	Trademark of Digital Equipment Corp

I don't know if they are still available.
I want to keep these. Sorry.
