Actually, I think Mac OS X is the closest thing to real UNIX that you can get.

Mac OS X Leopard 10.5 on the Intel arch is certified pure Unix, while all other OS X versions are Unix-like. Even BSD isn't Unix certified.

True, I just didn't want this to turn into a "I think this system is more *NIX than that system". OS X, Solaris/OpenSolaris, and the BSDs are all some form of *NIX whether they qualify under the SUS or not.
Specifications for trademarks vs. Ancestry. This is a topic of its own, and one with decisions best left to those who would potentially rename this forum.

What I was getting at was that, even though OS X is pure Unix, just like BSD and OpenSolaris, it's design is so much more difference on the interface that it still needs to be seperated.
I wasn't going for a "This is more *Nix than this one is", I was trying to indirectly show my opinion.
