Coherent
From Computer History Wiki
Coherent was a 'clean room' clone of Unix v7, originally written for the PDP-11 in 1980. It was ported to run on the IBM PC in 1983 and to the Zilog Z8000-based Commodore 900 in 1985. Coherent was somewhat famous for being audited by Bell Labs and was vetted to be free of AT&T code. Despite its low price it failed to achieve any significant market share.
