Hi,

Well, Microsoft has been in the Unix camp before, with Xenix and
SCO. [Witness my Trs-80 Mod 16 runs it].

But speculation aside, Apple is the one gobbling up both Unix and
[Windows application functionality] into their new OS. That's scary
in a very comfortable way. The old NeXT underpinnings with Linux
innovation, etc. is turning out to be ultra-powerful!
