Just to clear the air, last time I checked, the mac could run:

MacOS: (system/finder/multifinder)
Unix: at least three different unixes: AUX, MacIdris, one with a card (can't
	remeber what it was called though), with strong rumors of two more
	comming out "real soon now" (MacMach by Mt Xinu, Minix)
AppleDOS: IIinAMac (software)
MS-DOS:	several different ways, one of which doesn't require hardware
	(SoftPC)
And (if anybody is really interested, I have heard rumors that there
	is a CPM emulator out for the mac.

Additionally, the mac can be running (subject to memory limits) any
combination of MacOS, Unix, AppleDos (I think, never actually used
it), and MS-DOS, ALL AT THE SAME TIME (though only the gods know why
you would want to).
