   You do realize you are quoting apple's marketing for their server =
product not their client.  Very different product.  Also, how little =
exactly is apple's server used?  Do you know?

  Nope it's a statement of fact. I know 3 developers who use the Mac & =
all=20
  do so because at heart it's a Unix.

  Let's see what apple say...

  http://www.apple.com/server/macosx/

  "Mac OS X Server gives you everything you need to provide=20
  standards-based workgroup and Internet services =97 without the =
complexity=20
  of Linux or the cost inherent in other UNIX-based solutions."


  other Unix-based solutions? Implies OSX is a Unix based solution.

  & then:

  "UNIX at the core

  The power and simplicity of Mac OS X Server begin with a UNIX-based=20
  foundation built around the Mach microkernel and the latest advances=20
  from the open source BSD community. The result is a stable,=20
  high-performance 64-bit computing platform that=92s ideal for =

  server-based applications and services."


  & later:

  "Industry-Leading Management Tools

  and its full complement of services. Server Admin provides a graphical =

  user interface that makes it easy to configure, manage and monitor=20
  services from any Internet-connected Mac OS X system."


  How odd that even Apple disagree with you.

  Indeed but the fact remains that he swapped from Windows to a Unix.
