A common misconception - OS X is UNIX.
#6
Mac OS X is Unix-Like
Linux is Unix-like
BUT... they are NOT the same.

UNIX is an OS by AT&T.
Unix-like means it functions in the same/similar way to UNIX

Mac OS X is part Mach Microkernel (from NeXT) and part BSD 4.3 with code-sharing between Apple and FreeBSD.
