and I would add that it definitely doesn't qualify as "Yet Another Closed Source UNIX". MacOS X is DARWIN, which is as open as anything under GPL. Sure, Aqua is closed. Who cares? All the "truly free unixes" that Anonymous Coward refers to would (if they're running a gui at all) most probably be running XFree86. You can do that on Darwin too. The innovation happening here, is that a company is able to bring us the best of many worlds if we're interested. If you're not, keep using the other unixes that do interest you, or run Darwin without all the proprietry apple stuff. Choice is a good thing.

or maybe it was the 20th ... who cares? It's a funny movie; that's all that matters.
How petty are you? The fact is, the film was made in Australia, and as far as Australia is concerned, it happened on the 19th. Get over it!
