Why are you mad about Apple's look and feel lawsuit?  It's just trying to 
protect that which sets Macintosh apart (and to many, makes it better).

Face it, Windows never would have come to pass if Microsoft wasn't trying to 
pull Mac users to MS-DOS.  With the huge percentage of computer users that use 
MS-DOS (Mac users would say out of ignorance) Microsoft would have done just 
fine with MS-DOS had the Mac not created a need for Windows.  I don't think 
Microsoft would have been worried about bringing MS-DOS users a more productive 
way of computing, it would have just been interested in maintianing its profits.
Of course, if the roles were reversed, Microsoft would have done the same exact 
thing.  Any major corporation would.

As for your comment about "I wanted to run Unix, not something called A/Ux," to 
my knowledge A/Ux IS standard Unix with a few enhancements.  I don't think 
there's any more difference in A/Ux and Unix than you would find between Unix on 
an MS-DOS and a Sun.
