How is Apple able to sell OS X for a profit when it's based off Linux which is open source/free?
Isn't that illegal?
It's not based on Linux. And even if it was, selling it wouldn't be illegal.
Norms will buy it because it's apple.
It's Unix not linux

It's based of of BSD, which is based of of UNIX. BSD, although it is free software, does not require you to have your modified version to be released under the same license.

They binned their decent UI and rebuilt it around UNIX
It's not illegal because everyone borrows from open sores softwarez

How is your mom's pimp able to sell your mom for a profit when she's ugly as hell?
Virgin Media's TiVo is a better example of a "tyrant device" that used gnu software but prevented users from modifying it, thus breaking one of the few core principles of the gnu licence. Virgin stole linux.

Popularity doesn't imply quality. Bud Light is the world's most popular beer.
