I'm getting a low-end sparc, does that count?

RudeCat7:
Our graphics processing requirements are not very hardware intensive (see our Gimp competition) therefore all we use is what we got....

....crappy hardware, and crappy OS /*sarcasm*/

I cant think of anyone who uses "true" Unix. BSD is a variant, as is HP-UX, Solaris, and Linux. I believe AT&T owns the rights to Unix. Here is a pic of an old Unix pc.

I have used Irix on SGI. But I have much more extensive experience with Solaris, AIX, HP-UX, and SCO. I prefer Linux where possible because it is open, it runs on lots of hardware, and it's just as good or better than any of the other "UNIX (tm) based systems" for the majority of my needs.

And "The Open Group" is the trademark holder of UNIX. BSD and ATT UNIX is actually not on their certified list believe it or not.
