They're counting all the copies of OS-X shipped. It may be true that
more copies of OS-X have shipped than of any other commercial unix
system, but it hardly means a majority of the people using it know or
care that it's got unix at it's core.
And based on how Apple sells, I don't think it changes or redefines the
market.
