I was disappointed that Multics wasn't on the list.

Me too :) I have played with various alternative OS'es, including Multics, in the hope that it could be added to the Haiku/Minoca section. But the OS has to be practical enough for casual use, and similar enough to UNIX to make a comparison viable. Sadly Multics did not qualify. It is just too limited (it reminds me a great deal of UNIX V1 - or DOS for that matter).
