> Macs are basically the only Linux-based machine with a consumer-friendly interface …

Someone will point this out sooner or later, so I might as well do it ;)

Macs are neither Linux, nor the only. Mac OS X is based on FreeBSD. Linux machines usually come with GNU tools, and BSD have their own set, with subtle differences causing no end of confusion for the up and coming developers :) sed, grep, ls, etc. All slightly different interfaces (this is why brew offers a package to install the GNU version of all those tools, iirc “gnuutils” ?). The kernel itself is completely different, of course.

Android, however, would fit that description quite well.

it's "brew install coreutils" these days :)

Similarly, `bsdutils` exists for Linux.
