Best Answer

Traditional Unix systems would typically use the X Windows System. Newer ones may use other methods for displaying graphics, such as the WindowServer or Quartz Compositor in Mac OS X or SunView in early versions of SunOS.

Why GUI not used in UNIX?

A GUI can be used in Unix (in fact, several). Most power users don't use the GUI because it can be too limiting. The power of what you can do in Unix is at the command line, not using a GUI to click on buttons. Of course, this could be said about most operating systems; the GUI is there for user convenience but most administrators use the command line for most of their work.
