Hm, that's a really interesting theory, and the stories and related arguments too, thanks a lot! I didn't think of it before.

In fact, I started hearing of all of those OSes fairly recently too, but I still see myself as a "youngster" in programming world, and thus I thought those technologies were more well known at that time. Also, that they were more well known to Important Figures and Big Companies then, so they could try to build on those ideas.

But now I start to recall, that most of those OSes are usually reported to be used and deployed quite rarely (Lisp Machines e.g. often dismissed because of high price and hardware requirements), so that could have limited their exposure. And also, I'm ashamed to admit I forgot about this (oh the times!), it must be taken into account that there was no Internet at the time, so this also made sharing of ideas harder than now...
