Apple OS is originally derived from a BSD-Unix version. Apple dit never "invented" an Operating System. Apple OS is very much the same layout as many Linux distributions (or vice-versa)...

OK, I think about 4% of (classical) computer users use Apple OS. About 70% use Windows, the rest are various systems, where over half of it (12%) are Linux distributions. Yes, Linux is growing, and faster than most people think.

In the tablet and smartphone market, Apple once had about 100%, but since Google Android (= Linux), their share has dropped under the 40% in number of users. And it wil drop even more, as soon as Microsoft will appear.
