POLL: Cheetah, Puma, Jaguar, Panther, Tiger, Leopard, and...
Oh my. There's nothing we blog monkeys like more than casting our minds forward to the next greatest thing. Now that Leopard is about here and soon to be common place, what's next? What's Apple's codename for Mac OS X 10.6? You know it's already in development. So what do you TUAW readers think the next great codename will be? Let us know in this unspun poll.

What ever they call it I don't care,they can call it Barn Cat or Skunk, just so it works as good as all the hype. Then maybe they won't need all the "updates".

That's not a reason why it can't be that. It actually *can* be that. Despite what you think is a reason why it can't. So, that makes you wrong.

You know there's no such species as Panther right? A panther can be a Cougar (North American big cat), Jaguar (Central & South America) or Leopard (Africa & Asia).
A "Panther" or rather "Black Panther" is just a black oddity of any of the big cat species above.
I could tell you what the next OS version will be called, but then I'd have to kill you.

"22. OS 11 has to be Voltron fer sure. Sword in hand naturally."
VOLTRON was the FIRST name I thought of when I saw this topic and the list of all the cats. The combination of the 6 versions of OS X to date form the perfect Mighty OS 10.6 - aka VOLTRON. And with it, the return of Macs (and OS themes) in multiple colors! ;)
OS X 10.6 - Scractch Fury, Destroyer of Worlds!
