AU/X was a version of Unix written in the late 1980s by Apple that ran on just a few specific Macs, including the SE/30. It was developed in an effort to gain a foothold in the world of institutional UNIX buyers and also US Federal Government-funded hardware purchasing, which required POSIX compliance. System 7 ran in its entirety as a Unix process launched after boot. It's kind of a dead-end evolutionary cousin to OS/X.
