Linux/Unix. Most of that knowledge will port over to Mac OS. -

Normally I dislike answering normative questions like this with absolutes, but the answer is absolutely traditional UNIX and Linux over Mac OS. Mac OS X is nice for personal use and desktop support, but UNIX/Linux/open source knowledge is much more applicable to more job roles, especially more lucrative ones. -

Thanks, this was exactly the type of answer I was looking for. I realize this question could have been broken down into a hundred pieces but I was just looking for a simple answer like this on the whole. -

This. If you have a deep understanding of Linux/Unix, you can pick up the rest about OS X in a week."If you can't fix it, you don't own it"
