Post Cheetah, Puma, Jaguar, Panther, Tiger... Snow Leopard?
It's been a different cat for every new mac OS. Apple has revealed that 10.6 will be called Snow Leopard. I think it's safe to assume, then, that we'll be getting big cats up until (at least) OS XI comes out, which leaves (at least) three spots.

With minimal comments on how completely stupid "Snow Leopard" sounds, what do you think the three remaining cats will be?

I bet the next one will be Mac Lion.

and then the mythological ones, Mac Cerberus, Mac Sphinx, Mac Chimera, Mac Dragon, Mac Hydra, Mac Tiamat, Mac Bahamut,

And then we could even get into Big Dogs!

Mac Jackal, Mac...fluffy?

We could even have an iNubis!

I was trying to be fun, I've been in a bad mood since friday, and I'm trying to lighten up.

So Enjoy your Mac iNubis and deal with it! copy your movies and videogames from your Mac Jackal!

Miles, stick to writing short stories in each post, rather than trying to be funny.

<3 xkcd

I could see Steve Jobs jokingly unveil some portable, calling it "iKitten", but it's not really apple's style.

I think lion is definitely up there. Also cougar. Panthers are just cougars or jaguars heavy on the melanin (they are not a distinct species), but Apple's not really concerned with redundancy, apparently, because, as already mentioned, they're ♥♥♥♥ going with "snow leopard".

That leaves one more. Liger doesn't seem much in apple's style, either, and Lynx wouldn't go over for obvious reasons. Bob cat? Stupid. Sabertooth? Too old.
I have no idea.

As for OS 11, they'll probably go somewhere totally different. No more animals. They already did fruits, right? Maybe fungi is next.

=
The have done fruits and cats.... I don't foresee a mac shitake any time soon.
Mac-thulu would be sort of funny but doubtfull, cause then they'd have to do a mac hastur, a mac king in yellow, a mac nyarlethotep, and I don't think they'd do that... besides copyright.

There probably gonna go with either random objects like mac waterbottle or mac juice or mac toaster, untill they realise how stupid it would be, and then they'll throw together random sylables and we'll have the mac ohbifdazu.

Or maybe they already have names planned and that in 2012 they'll run out of names and the world will end as a result because they'd make a mac apple, and the world would riot appart.
