I would put AIX closer to the BSD family and Solaris towards SysV.

Yes, Solaris definitely belongs to Unix tree, not BSD. Azrael Nightwalker (talk) 11:51, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Well. the whole point of SVR4 (Solaris 2, UnixWare &c) is that it is the merge of ideas from BSD and earlier AT&T Unixes HughesJohn (talk) 10:59, 31 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Mac OS

I'd use the correct "Mac OS X" in this graph. And I wouldn't separate Darwin from OSX either. -- Henriok (talk) 20:33, 18 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also change Mac OS 10.4.6 to Mac OS 10.5.4. Mac OS 10.5.4 is the current version of Mac OS. --frogger3140 (talk) 22:00, 30 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Geez, do we need to update this every time Apple releases an update to Mac OS X? I say just remove the version number. It only serves to confuse when it isn't updated (i.e., I was wondering, what was so special about Mac OS X 10.4.6 in terms of UNIX history?).
Also, it should say, "Mac OS X", not "Mac OS". "Mac OS" refers to the Classic Mac OS (9 and earlier), which was not based on UNIX. And another idea is to put dates on each bar, so that you don't have to try and read down from the timeline at the top. Asmeurer (talkcontribs) 23:45, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed. Just wanted to suggest the same. Please correct Mac OS to Mac OS X.--79.111.171.117 (talk) 12:18, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
