    Lion and Cougar are the two remaining big names in the Cat Family. So, I think we'll have to wait till OS X 10.8 for a new breed of names. Personally, I would prefer new generation of names to be on Space (like some Nebula, Aurora, Titan etc). Sounds cool yet elegant! Mac OS X Titan sounds awesome!!

    Lynx is still available.



    I vote for 10.6 "Lynx".

    Too late bro! 10.6 belongs to Snow Leopard And personally, I think Lynx sounds too feminine for a robust OS



    For the next version of Windows, I would recommend:

    MS Windows CAT (Editions: Home Pussy, Premium Pussy, Business Pussy, Ultimate Pussy) haha!!

    Apple complied and changed the Carl Sagan code name to BHA. Sagan found out too late it stood for Butt Head Astronomer.

    LOL I mean 10.7 Lynx. Yes, it does sound feminine, but doesn't Cougar refer to the sexually aggressive mature ladies?

    Then, I guess I'll stand by the space-related names. Can't resist Mac OS X Titan! Are you listening Apple?
