Isn't MacOS founded on Unix?

I had at least one Prof at university that claimed MacOS and Linux have more in common than Microsoft and has with either. The only thing tying MS and Apple is the vampiric nature of the companies.

Yes, though I'm not sure what your point is.

No meaningful point. Just find it funny that everyone is so used to comparing MS/Apple. Its apples and ~~oranges~~ garbage fires (fueled by spreadsheets).
