Yes, i think the perfect *nix system IS until now Apple.
Apple succeed where linux failed.(desktop computer)
Provide a fantastic user interface and developpement environment
in term of easy to use and really productive in developpement on top of Unix.
Its not difficult to see the difference btw apple gui and linux gui (kde, gnome, etc..)
All the linux applications which I use were compiled without problems.
Just ./configure, make and make install.
The product is here and he is called macosx.
If IBM succeeds in environement developing a window manager and gui of the quality of
that of APPLE with new of development even more modern than that of
APPLE i say BRAVO.
But let us not forget that the technology of macosx results from Next
(1988), and that it was necessary thus 14 years so that APPLE become
the first Unix seller.
Day after day linux developpers change for macosx.
I think the alternative to m$ft for desktop computing is apple.
And for the server side is linux.
When ''as400 toolkit for cocoa''??

The base kernel will always be free. Anything on the top might not be. There
could be another Apple out there designing the "perfect linux system".
