The fact that it's a TRUE linux machine
To be pedantic, a GNU/Darwin/Mach/BSD machine.
- nickthemagicman 8y agoYessir. A flavor of Linux but Linux nonetheless.
- parasubvert 8y agoA flavour of UNIX. BSD (and OS X) evolved mostly separately from GNU or Linux, with some limited cross-over. Even basic CLI tools have subtle differences. The only Linus Torvalds code in a Mac would be git.
- nickthemagicman 8y agoSorry. you're right my bad. I was thinking Unix but kept typing Linux for some reason. A more accurate statement is that it's a true posix compliant Unix based system down to the metal.
