Well, Macs run an OS loosely built upon BSD, as I understand, which, 
like Linux, is also ¨Unix-based¨.
But to say they run Unix is not exactly accurate, I don´t think.

Wait a minute...avoid hearsay? use the internet to educate yourself?
I don´t get it...
Crikey, I could sit all day and read Micro$lop FUD on the internet and 
it wouldn´t make me a bit wiser...
Yes, there are many opportunities to educate oneself online, but if one 
comes to the internet without
enough discretion separate the wheat from the chaff, to discern hearsay 
from higher learning, FUD from fact,
one could very likely end up worse off than better. Therefore, I would 
say, educate yourself BEFORE you
try to surf the internet...or something like that.
