Code Names of OS X...
Okay, so we all knew about Puma, Cheetah, and such.
Some of us even knew that Kodiak was the codename for the Public Beta.
But did you know that the three developer releases before that were, in order, Beaker, Bunsen, and Gonzo?
And an alternate codename for Rhapsody was Teflon? (As well as the Hera and Atlas build distinctions...)
It's amazing what one finds when dumpster diving in the CVS directories for Darwin.

Comments
I think Apple's going to get away from numbers in their naming scheme. I think OS X will remain under that name, and future releases will be the "code name" they give them.
"Now available, OS X Jaguar"
"Coming soon, OS X Congo" (or whatever)
That seems confusing enough.
