- SwellJoe 16y agoI didn't know unicorns were involved. Count me in!
- rbanffy 16y agoHaving a Unix layer on top of Mach is very convenient from an application development point of view. This made the Unix userland able to run on the NeXT's OS we currently call OSX. I am not sure about the relationship between NeXT's OS and OSF/1, but OSF/1 shared the BSD-on-Mach nature with it.
