Hi Anthony, etc The reason that we continue to report Unix is for historical reasons (the MacOSX enum value was not in the original specifications and so Mono started out reporting Unix). We cannot start reporting MacOSX as the PlatformID because it would break any existing applications that expect it to return Unix.
I don't know how many apps that would break, but it is a risk that we cannot blindly take. Hope that helps answer why it reports Unix...
