I've been reading a little about the PDP-10 lately, and it seems like most
of the operating systems have survived and are publicly available.
Does anybody know if Tymcom-X by Tymshare survived? If it has, I wonder who
owns the rights.

Says here that it belonged to WorldCom as of 2002, which means
it's
owned today by Verizon, unless a creditor picked it up at some point.

By the way -- that took me 45 seconds of Googling -- work on your search
skills before posting. :)

If anything has survived it would be on Bitsavers, I don't believe anything
has. Basically we've quite a bit of TOPS-10 and TOPS-20, and then some ITS.
It is a toss up as to for which platform more has survived, the PDP-10, or
the PDP-11.
