That is the only real “Unix” left. Linux is officially not “Unix”.

I'm not sure what sort of "officially" you have in mind.

As opposed to UNIX, a trademark and originally identifying the AT&T
version of a Unix system, the term Unix is usually used to classify
the _family_ of these operating systems. But MacOS X is in the line
of BSD Unixes (not AT&T). So both, Linux and MacOS X are Unixes.
