Probably they ran that?
No, it ran SCO Unix, which was the business version popular at the time.
I found the ad and edition of computerworld in the Internet Archive: The
issue is the June 22nd 1992 one and it has all sorts of interesting
articles and predictions from people like Gates, Jobs, Wang, Bell, and
others. Going to be worth a read here.
Anyway, on the PDF download it starts at page 186-189.
They benchmarked it against a Dec 433MP (could also do 6 processors) and
a SystemPro (2) with 60 user loads. Wow.
