And the new Mac OS X (say "OS ten") is UNIX-based. I think this, and

The Pentagon, so the story goes, ordered many hundreds of Mac laptops
when the 9-11 disaster occurred because of built-in networking
capability. An Apple Airport networking card installed in each
computer, a base station here and there, and voila!, instant
networking without cables (hard to string cables in the rubble...)
