No one is arguing wether OSX is Unix or not because now it _is_ Unix.
Both oliver and gkontos are experienced *nix users and i am sure both have valid points.
Most people need MS Windows or OSX for their "desktop" needs. Atleast with OSX you can drop down to a Unix command prompt (if you choose to).

Yes, I'm not disputing that, but it seems that oliver is saying that you can't use OS X for Unix functionality, or at least you shouldn't.
