I fail to see what OS X has to do with UNIX, certification or not.
The apps are all programmed with APIs and a mindset that has nothing to do with UNIX. OS X is about the pretty face, not what's underneath. Sure, you've got bash on top and pipes and sockets if you want them, but that's completely insulated from the rest of the system, it doesn't seem to work together with Cocoa side of things, beyond nice drag and drop into Terminal.app. BeOS is more UNIX-like than OS X is...

thats becasue only at isvery core routeens is it UNIX based, the most basic levels. mostly to handle the kernel booup. originaly OSX was intended to have alot mof unix structure but in the end they just built the very core off of it.

an excamplewould be that MS DOS 7 was at the very core of windows 95/98
