Apple had real Unix a decade before the Linux crap was made, a bad unix copy. Nextstep was much better than Linux crap. "A budget of bad ideas" is what Alan Kay said about Linux [1], he invented the personal computer. My 1987-1997 ISP was based on several different Unix running on Apple, probably long before you where born. Apple built several supercomputers.

Are you talking about A/UX? That was one of the first Unix systems I was exposed to. | ||

Alan Kay invented a dead end (smalltalk). Meanwhile Linux became the future. Apple had a terrible Unix until they bought NextStep. | ||
