   I have it for my PC although I'm currently not running it due to the 
fact that I don't have a supported video card and all I get is black and 
white!
   It is very similar to running X-Windows on a Linux platform, at least 
from what little I used it.  The menus are very Apple-like while the 
terminal is definately unix-based.  It _is_ fast as hell, and will 
definately be my OS of choice whenever I get my hardware sorted out!
