Bobcat, Lynx, Puma? :)

[Queso]

OSX 10.6 Fluffykitten. New pink-based GUI theme and the startup chime is replaced by the sound of little tinkly bells.

[bartelby]

Puma was 10.0 (or 10.1) I can't remember

[killerwhack]

Bobcat seems like a vulerable cat. My favorite is cheetah.

[Queso]

Puma was 10.0 (or 10.1) I can't remember
10.0. 10.1 was Cheetah.

Puma was 10.0 (or 10.1) I can't remember

[bartelby]

10.0. 10.1 was Cheetah.

Ta.

I remember 10.1 being horrible though. I stuck with OS 9 until Jaguar.

Although I've typo'ed it the wrong way round :D

Your way is actually correct.

Although I bought OSX 10.0 the day it was released, it was at 10.1.3 that I finally made it my default OS. My iMac DV needed a bigger hard disk and more RAM straight off. Stuck with that until Panther was released, which was a major improvement in speed terms :)

[lotusbk]

What about Lion?

[squeeks]

Although I've typo'ed it the wrong way round :D

Your way is actually correct.

well in that case the correct order is...

10.0 - Cheetah
10.1 - Puma

:thumbsup:

What about Lion?

i think there was talk about not having the world lie as part of the name of your OS

[richthomas]

i cant believe apple hasnt used Lion yet! i mean come on hes the king of the jungle! apple's advertising campaign for 10.6 will be "OS X Lion. King of the Operating Systems"... :D

i also heard that apple has copyrighted lynx and cougar so theyll prob use these next.

[squeeks]

i cant believe apple hasnt used Lion yet!

see my post above

[bartelby]

Apparently:

Mac OS X versions are named after big cats. Prior to its release, version 10.0 was code named "Cheetah" internally at Apple, and "version 10.1 was code named internally as "Puma". After the immense buzz surrounding version 10.2, codenamed "Jaguar", Apple's product marketing began openly using the code name to promote the operating system. 10.3 was marketed as "Panther", and 10.4 as "Tiger". "Leopard" has been announced as the name for the next release, version 10.5. "Panther", "Tiger" and "Leopard" are registered as trademarks of Apple, but "Cheetah", "Puma" and "Jaguar" have never been registered. Apple has also registered "Lynx" and "Cougar" as trademarks.

beat me to it squeeks and lotusbk! lion sounds too much like lie? i mean come on that would be the most pointless lawsuit if ive ever seen one.

[Jestered]

Mac OS 10.6.....

Liger

[squeeks]

beat me to it squeeks and lotusbk! lion sounds too much like lie? i mean come on that would be the most pointless lawsuit if ive ever seen one.

i dont think its so much as lawsuit bait, as that its not good maketing to be lieing about your opperating system i guess...

[richthomas]

whether lion sounds like lie or not, i still think it would be an awesome name for 10.6

[Cloudsurfer]

Technically, Lion is the last big cat left. But I think Apple won't use it until the very last version of Mac OS X, before they move on to something completely different (Mac OS XI???).

[irishgrizzly]

Who gives one? It could be called Mac OS Turd and people would use it – it's not like you've got a choice.

[lancestraz]

Mac OS 10.6.....

Hell yeah. Ligers or the most badass cats ever (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FahfsKOhMzE).

sure you do, there is always linux or windows. or a previous OS X.

[josiahcooper]

sphinx?

[RUFiO795]

Well that sure would be mysterious...

I've got a pretty good hunch that, come October 26th, Apple is going to scratch the whole Leopard idea and just go with OS 10.5 Sabretooth Tiger.

[Bigtree]

kitty kitty

[vouder17]

LoLcatz! FTW

New feature: Cheezburgurz

[jedivulcan]

Here's my two cents
"House Cat"

or "Maine Coon"

This is how Apple would advertise it on it's website.
"Apple Mac OSX, 10.6 House Cat, a lot of features in one beautiful domesticated package"

[Sean Dempsey]

OS 11, duh.

This "OS EX TEN POINT FIVE POINT THREEHUNDRED THOUSAND BANANA" is getting tired.

Seriously, OS 11.
