Absolutely!  Which is why I referred to Linux as "Unix-like" and not UNIX.
Linux is NOT licensed to use UNIX(r) per The Open Group's specs.

BSD and Mac OS X are licensed to use UNIX(r).

All this according to the wikipedia entry - I'm certainly no UNIX expert!
Which, of course is a good thing.  Otherwise, SCO would be hauling my
butt in to court to testify!!! LOL
