"Unix on Rise? Mac's OS X May Mark Spot":
http://computerworld.com/cwi/story/0,1199,NAV47-74_STO68372,00.html

'Maybe the truly interesting potential for the version of Unix called OS X 
is yet to be realized. Unix programmers now have a platform that could be 
orders of magnitude larger than any they've ever seen. What new 
applications might emerge?'

' (...) software innovation might revive after a long dry stretch under the 
thumb of the Redmond monopolist, the industry could be in for a new phase 
of innovation, especially since this is one platform Microsoft doesn't control.

Oddly, the rise of the new Mac OS could end up being good for Linux. 
Applications that run well on OS X could be ported back to Linux, giving 
developers a larger target market than they have today.

Are we going back to the future with Unix? It's no longer a trick question. '
