"UNIX and Windows data-center market share remain neck-and-neck, according to most analysts, but many in IT perceive UNIX and Linux innovation as slowing to a crawl. We interviewed representatives from Apple, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Novell, Red Hat, and Sun Microsystems who were eager to challenge that perception by highlighting areas in which their UNIX OSs are breaking new ground."

Modern UNIX variants are generally well-engineered OSes and have some very impressive capabilities, but there is still a lot of room for improvement in UNIX both in the desktop space and in the server space.
Perfected on the server side and in the sense that it hasn't changed much in the past 15 years or more. Unix had a head start over evey other OS by almost a decade to become a desktop OS i doubt that we will ever see Unix on the desktop.
