    In answer to your other questions.

    1. As a free GS user, you could make a potential profit by listing your game as paid on the app store. As a pro GS user, you would have additional monetization options such as iAds, Playhaven and Kiip. Of course, you could also then publish your app on Google Play/Android & Amazon app stores.

    Apple takes 30% cut, you get remaining 70%.

    2. You can use any mac to publish

    Mac OS is the Mac's operating system (Lion, Snow Leopard, etc) and has a dedicated App Store for games (in the same vein as Steam) and iOS is the iPhone and iPad operating system for the App Store most people know. You don't need to purchase the membership for the Mac OS to publish to iPhone and iPad, it is completely optional.

    There are two programs - one for iOS and one for Mac OS. If you want to publish to either one of those platforms, you'll have to join the program. Each one costs $99 per year.
