Yes, UNIX is not a product, per se. The Open Group uses UNIX as a 'certification mark' that certifies compliance with their criteria.
Most others, not so interested in these issues, say UNIX is now a generic term that describes a generic operating environment.
We are not here to judge .... just to Q&A the technical issues. however, if you ask me, UNIX is both a certification mark and a generic pre-emptive multitasking operating environment.
UNIX is not a product that is " traded", as is similar marks (like SONY VAIO) are typically used as a trademark.
