Seeing that OSX basically at the end of the day under the hood is! believe it or not, a form of Unix, and seeing that it is possible to get to a terminal shell through the Utilities folder in the finder, could one actually run Unix/Linux based CLI apps that don't require a graffic interface? For example, there is a really nice command line only Linux based Pandora player called pianobar. It works absolutely flawlessly! Also could one install apt then do things on a mac like apt-get install or aptitude install packagename?

I know that sounds like a dumb question, but... yeah, I know I could run Linux in a VM machine, or could probably in theory even do it with bootcamp, but I really would rather not, as there's really only like 3 or 4 things from Linux that I'd like to port over.

Thanks.

Chris.
