- ofrzeta 1y agoThat is true :) So Apple has become the last remaining Unix workstation vendor?
- ido 1y agoIt doesn't take much to get the price up to low 5-figure USD (inflation UN-adjusted similar to lower end SUN workstation prices)...Max CPU and max RAM already bring you to $10k without a monitor.

- nullpoint420 1y agoI don’t mean to be a downer, but it is XNU (X is not Unix) on RISC. “or as I like to call it, XNU/RISC”
- os2warpman 1y agoIt isn't Unix. It is UNIX. https://www.opengroup.org/openbrand/register/brand3710.htm https://www.opengroup.org/openbrand/register/brand3710.htm
- nullpoint420 1y agoApologies, I should have said "XNU stands for X is Not UNIX." Someone should update the docs at Apple!
