   You appear to be mired in the 90's.   
      
   There is no =| “Unix” trademark |= .   
      
   You have been corrected on this multiple times.   
      
   "UNIX® is a registered trademark of The Open Group."   
      
   "Unix" is the description of a family of POSIX-compliant   
   operating systems.   
      
   Linux is a Unix, but is not UNIX®   
      
   MacOS is a Unix, and is also UNIX®.   
      
   "*nix" was a term used in the 90's, until   
   this matter was cleared up.

   The NeXTStep GUI got grafted onto OS X.  If someone wants to   
   do something similar on Linux, there is GNUStep or if you   
   want the NeXT "look and feel", AfterStep.

   Once again, you are stuck in the 90's.
