OSX has always been "unix" based, well in as much as you can call BSD

Unix and has not passed certification and probably never will.


I always refer to Linux as a 'jumped up UNIX wannabe'. When giving my
introductory lecture on UNIX.


Is that why 93% of the world's super-computers run Linux?


It's still not UNIX.
