Macintosh is not merely Unixy or Unix-like. It's completely Unix. As
much Unix as AIX and Solaris:

As for whether PLUG is an appropriate forum. The description on the
web site describes it as "General Linux/UNIX discussion and help;
civil and on-topic". I'd say that since Macintosh is Unix, it
qualifies. However, the pool of Macintosh users here is thin compared
to the pool of Linux users. You'd have better chances getting help
setting up a cron job than setting up an iCal alarm.
