UNIX Review was an American magazine covering technical aspects of the UNIX operating system and C programming. Recognized for its in-depth technical analyses,[1] the journal also reported on industry confabs and included some lighter fare.

The journal was renamed to UNIX Review's Performance Computing (UR/PC) Magazine with the April 1998 issue,[2] and ceased print publication in 1999. The on-line publication ceased in 2007.[3] It was published by REVIEW Publications of Renton, Washington. The rights to the title are currently owned by United Business Media (formerly CMP Media),[3][4] but the UnixReview.com website is no longer active and the archives have been destroyed or hidden.
