Best Answer

Steve Jobs formed a company called NEXT after he left Apple in the 90s. This company developed an operating system based on UNIX. When Apple decided to hire Steve back after a number of years, he sold the NEXT operating system to Apple to study and modify, which would eventually become OS X (OS ten).
