See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/y31yhkeb(VS.90).aspx “Pointer types do not inherit from object and no conversions exist between pointer types and object. Also, boxing and unboxing do not support pointers.”

:Find a reliable source which says "no, C# does not have a unified type system". So far there are only sources supporting that C# has a unified type system. You are correct that the the native-oriented type "pointer" does not derive from ''object''. But the pointer type is not part of the common type system of C#. It is a type to which you only gain access when you run the ''extended'' version of the language which you get access to by compiling with the '''unsafe''' option. But it is really down to reliable sources. Remember, Wikipedia is about [[WP:VERIFY|verifiability]]. --[[User:Useerup|Useerup]] ([[User talk:Useerup|talk]]) 07:07, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
