For a newbie this is all confusing starting with OS X, OS X server, OS X 10.2, X11, X11R6, X11 Darwin, XWindows, I think someone could have decided on some other letters. There are a few others to choose from.

X11, X11R6, XDarwin, X windows are not confusing, they are referring to more or less the same thing. Blame Apple for introducing Mac OS X and in particular

 "X server - the only Unix that comes without an X server" :-)
