but it's not. Linux is Linux-based, since Linux is the kernel. Unix clone... that's the term.
only one problem... like I said, I think OS X has quite a few uniquely individual things.
quote:
It uses a Unix API,
No. It doesn't. Mac OS X apps will not run on any other OS. They cannot provide the needed support. Mac OS X native apps use the Cocoa API, built from the classic NeXTStep/YellowBox API.
These APIs are built on Objective-C and are not compatible with the classic UNIX API. Mac OS X apps are not POSIX apps in the least. They take advantage of high-level structures provided by the OS.
but it's okay, I know your horrible secret that you've been hiding from us, suselinux. I'm going to EXPOSE YOU FOR THE CHARLATAN YOU ARE!!

YOU ARE POWERLESS TO STOP HIM, FOR HE IS NIGH INVULNERABLE!! WHEN HE IS THROUGH WITH YOU, THERE WILL BE NARY A SOLDIER STANDING!
Just admit it! Captain Evil attacks nearly all of us nightly. He's a busy man for an evil mastermind super villain. Shit, dude... HE'S ATTACKING ME RIGHT NOW!
