My first was Acorn's RISC iX on their first ARM-based Unix workstation,
4MB RAM and a 50MB hard drive, 1988. RISC iX is basically BSD 4.3.
Second would be 7th Edition on a PDP-11/23 with 4MB RAM and a pair of
RL02s, which I acquired about 1990. It came with the original
distribution magtape, too. That was fun, but a bit slow even by
standards of the day.

BSD 4.1, 1981. On a VAX 780 of course.
