The article is hosted on macobserver.com, which explains why it has 'Mac' in the title. Also, looking at the article itself it is clearly intended for casual/non-geek computer users. Seeing that OS X + Windows probably cover ~99% of this group, and the calender is not on windows (I suppose), it's not that strange that the article refers to Macs either.

Indeed. I realize this likely predates OS X entirely, but... you're right: casual audience and.. TMO's Mac focus. But yep, as many here have pointed out, it's certainly not limited to the Mac.

It's provided by bsdmailutils.
$ dpkg -S /usr/share/calendar/calendar.lotr

So this is not an "Apple" article at all despite the "Mac" in the name. It's a FreeBSD article.
How did FreeBSD stuff get into Linux though?
