there was a brief window when Darwin and osx first came out that the soho mac store hosted NYC BSD user group meetings (nycbug) in their shiny upstairs theater. I even did a presentation there once. I think they quickly realized we weren’t “on brand” enough for them.

Shortly after Tekserv (and old NYC Mac store) hosted us. There was so much hope that apple was going to fully embrace Unix and BSD in a public way - or failing that in a major financial way. Never really came to pass, but it was fun regardless.
