Unless we're talking to the 99% of humanity who give us funny looks for being pedantic about the 'unix-like' OS we happen to be supporting this month. Or we're sending our out our "HR resume" (as opposed to our "Technical Manager" resume).

It's damned annoying to have an HR drone assume you can't do the job because they are filling for "Solaris 8" and you've got on your reusme "SunOS 2.8, Linux, AIX, BSD etc." <grumble>
