What is “Unix”? It’s just a trademark. The original meaning of a
particular way for a computer system (OS and userland) to operate has
gone, and Apple played an instrumental part in killing it.
Unix does not look dead to me.
When people think “Unix” nowadays, they really mean a Linux or BSD system.
That’s what works they way they expect a “Unix” system to work. Not Apple.
