I agree that having monolitic OSes basically is a bad design (beacuse
they will be usually harder to get stable and in the long run also more
difficult to extend or upgrade).

The MacOS is monolithic in it's design.

OS/2 and VMS isn't (they both have a layerd architecture).
 
NT isn't (it's a layerd OS with a client/server desing).
