So this will be iOS Lion?
Hyena
(It really is)
And guys don't bother the aluminum. Maybe it is a style refresh of OS X?

10.7 better not disappoint. If it does, than you can truly see that Apple has changed into an iOS company first and foremost.
For the record, here are the cats in order:
10.0 - Cheetah
10.1 - Puma
10.2 - Jaguar
10.3 - Panther
10.4 - Tiger
10.5 - Leopard
10.6 - Snow Leopard
10.7 - Presumed Lion

10.7 - Presumed Lion
Presumably so.
I doubt this version will have touchscreen capability, it seem so soon. OS X 11 seems like the logical touch-screen capable version.
I'm sure there will be info about OS X 10.7. Hopefully a new MBA as well, maybe a slight CPU bump for MBPs. Also iLife + iWork.
Or then it's something completely different and amazing

Steve jobs during the keynote:
It's a major step forward from Snow Leopard. This Mac screams. It's fast, really fast. And it's powerful. It's very, very powerful. Like a lion. Therefore, it's logically enough that we name our new operating system Mac OS X Lion.
And just like the lion is king of the jungle, so too, is Mac OS X Lion the king of all the operating systems.
(People loudly applaud.)
Makes sense to me. Powerful and king of the X, whatever it is.
Yes, that's how I see it.

You're all welcome. I waited so freaking long to update to snow leopard because the first year it came out I thought it wasn't worth the minor upgrade. Then I waited this year thinking I might buy a whole new mac. I just bit the bullet and upgraded to Snow Leopard 2 weeks ago needing it to get into iPhone development properly (can't develop for iOS4 without it) and getting antsy over no new OS X update announcement.
Oh well, it was only $30, hopefully 10.7 is just as cheap.

My thoughts exactly. We get another 2 years starting now os OSX and bam 11 comes out. Probably a fusion hybrid of OSX and iOS incorporating the first touch features on desktops.
