Also, the biggest difference to end users with Linux/Mac is the UI; OS X uses the proprietary interface that Apple developed, while Linux uses one of many desktop managers, including GNOME, KDE, and XFCE to name the three most popular (to my knowledge).

And the GUI for the kernal shouldn't effect how individual programs look right?
