> till exists in OS X.10.4 and the seeded OS X.10.5 Yosemite

Don't you mean "OS X 10.10.4 and ... OS X 10.10.5 Yosemite"?

Nope. OS X 10.10.4 etc. is redundant. The name of Apple's operating system for the Mac is pronounced "OS Ten" the X is "ten", as in Roman numeral Ten. It's also a visual pun on UniX and NeXT.

El Capitan will be OS X.11
Yosemite is OS X.10
Mavericks was OS X.9
Mountain Lion was OS X.8
Lion was OS X.7
Snow Leopard was OS X.6
Leopard was OS X.5
Tiger was OS X.4
Panther was OS X.3
Jaguar was OS X.2
Puma was OS X.1
Cheetah was OS X

That are all called OS X, OS "TEN". . . but, it's never pronounced OS "EKS".
