Up-voted for including Mac OS X.
- aaronblohowiak 17y agoit is POSIX compliant!
- kogir 17y agoSo is Windows with Windows Services for UNIX. It's available for Windows Server (2003 and 2008) and Vista/7 (Ultimate, and Enterprise). I still wouldn't call it a *nix.
- JeremyChase 17y agoOf all these choices OS X is the only one that is legally 'Unix'. The Unix trademark is owned by The Open Group, and to use the term Unix you have to meet several criteria and pay a substantial fee. The FOSS *nixes do generally meet the requirements, but do not pay the fee. ta-da!
