        I don't think I'd say that.  MacOS-X is a true unix (although not 
a monolithic kernel... Mach micro-kernel).  It's just that NeXT (and later 
MacOS-X) managed to get the GUI really nice and polished as opposed to X11 
and its ilk.  MacOS-X is *much* more like Linux than it is like Winders.
