The image implies what version of the operating system is installed (like windows would have windows 95 or 98 or ME, or XP, etc..). Apple's code name for its operating system, for some reason, is based on large cats. The latest version of the OS is Leopard (purple default desktop). The previous one was Tiger.

I recommend strongly that you get Leopard (version 10.5).

BTW, not a silly question.
