Well, the guy is the pop star of tech. I wonder if they release a special iPhone Greatest Hits Collection, all the favorite iPhone models in a special, (I mean _really_ special) package now. And everyone applaudes when they get 5 songs from iTunes for free.

Oh wait, Steve isn't dead yet. Well, maybe later then.

Saler? Sailor? Seller?

The first commercially sold UNIX outside of AT&T was IS/1 and that was 1977. Long before MacOS X. To be perfectly honest, though, I don't see why you wouldn't want to count AT&T's licenses of UNIX from even before that. You may want to do some reading before invoking your own Apple-slanted UNIX revisionist history: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix.

To answer your other questions:
DARWIN: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darwin_OS
FreeBSD: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freebsd

Again, please be sure to read them.

...but, neither is MacOS X, really. It's UNIX 03 certified and very POSIX, but it's not actually UNIX, so much as UNIX based. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mac_OS_X) By contrast, Linux doesn't pretend to BE Unix, it clearly went the GNU route and tries to be POSIX compliant but written from scratch to functionally operate to be Unix-like. By the by, I used to play with a NeXT computer a little over 15 years ago when they were new and long before Jobs worked for Apple again. They were spiffy little boxes--weird, but spiffy--but also FreeBSD based, not actual UNIX. (For the record, though, I prefer FreeBSD's OS over UNIX)

He didn't bring UNIX onto personal computers. That was also AT&T, unsurprisingly (desktop and laptop UNIX): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AT%26T_...stems#Desktops wayyy back in 1983. If you're going to take NeXT (which was aimed at developers, not end-users), then you might as well count AT&T's desktops/laptops.

BSD isn't "not known" here... it's simply irrelevant to the conversation.
