AnswerClick to flip back
A
UNiplexed Information and Computing System
💡 Explanation:
UNICS (later UNIX) originally stood for UNiplexed Information and Computing System, a play on Multics (Multiplexed Information and Computing Service). It was not 'UNified', nor is 'UNIX Information and Calculating System' the historically accurate expansion.
