@wildbus8979@Mwa MacOS was Unix based after Steve Jobs created the Mach/Unix/Mac Finder stack for use on the Next computer, as soon as he returned to Apple, it was adopted there.
@wildbus8979 Actually, because it used a Mach microkernel, it could easily be ported to ANY hardware, that is the whole entire point of Mach. Also it did run on the Mc680x0 family and that was what Mac was based upon at the time, prior to Power PC chips, prior to Intel, prior to M chips, and it is precisely that Mach microkernel that enabled the easy transition from one hardware platform to the next.
BSDs mostly, Mac wasn’t a Unix based system at the time. It also didn’t run on x86.

I know.

Yes but that’s completely irrelevant to the original point.
@wildbus8979 No but completely relevant to your comment. Such is the nature of conversational threads.
Ohh
