And Apple doesn't make them.
That's one big cat

3. Mac OS X Ferret
You're right, it just doesn't have the same ring to it. :rofl:

6. I've wondered that also. There are about 30 cat species,
but Apple has already used up most of the more dramatic ones (I don't think they've done Lion yet). Eventually, though, they might have to name an OS something like, "Nondescript Striped Tabby."

9. Why don't you have an ocelot?
Your moniker is a lie! Shame on you!

10. How do you know I don't have an ocelot?
In fact, how do you know I'M not an ocelot?

Actually, I think a good reason might be that they are wild as hell and would probably tear out my spleen. But I hope Apple names an OS after them someday.

11. Canine names of course
They have been underrepresented lately.

12. Wild canines, like Wolf or Coyote?
Or are we looking at something like OS X Schnauzer or OS X Cockapoo?
