What's Unix exactly?

Do the many Unix/Linux 'users' who make use of it regularly by way of 
MacOS X or the various embedded devices (eg wireless APs) think its a 
brutishly powerful but unfriendly 'tool'? Do they even, as they do 
whatever they want in photoshop or simply send an email (via their 
AP), care?

and what about google? Seems to me like all internet users are also 
users of possibly one of the biggest and most complex Unix cluster 
application..
