I think they will stick to OS X for a very long time... They could even say OS X 11.0 considering the current name is OS X 10.4.2

Mac OS Y?

Why not. It's nearly Yunix anyway.

Mac OS X-Trem Ultimate Pro Edition x2 Mellenium

How about take the Final Fantasy route? OS X-2. Quote: Originally Posted by production_coordinator They could even say OS X 11.0 considering the current name is OS X 10.4.…

You know how Intel had the 286 processor, then the 386, then the 486... and then they gave the 586 the moniker "Pentium" to emphasize the five-ness of it, and then marketed the hec…

Since it's called Mac OS X 10.4.2 they could call it Mac OS X 11 indeed. 10.9 being less than 10.10 is mathematically wrong I would say. Then we still have the cats as well, don't …

I believe Apple said at one time that the Classic OS lasted about 20 years, and that they expected OS X to last about 20 years. I think OS X will be around for a long time. Beyond…

10.10. is higher than 10.9 because 10>9. See? It's just tradition that the parts of the version number are separated by dots. They could be dashes too: 10-9, 10-10, etc. Chris

Too small of a kernel for me. I want Max OS XXL

Actually I'd prefer Mac OS XS - regular Mac OS X with all the debugging code removed...

Yeah, and I'm waitin' for me Mac OS XXX yeee-haw.

I doubt if there is any significance in debating the issue of naming the OS – look at how Microsoft migrated from DOS -> Windows 1,2,3.x -> 9x/2000 -> XP -> Vista. At t…

Nah nah nah.. your all wrong. In 2010, when we reach the end of Mac OS X, Apple will bring out "Macintosh 2010". It will a very few number of upgrades, but they will be Macintosh 2…

By then it should be Intel only. I think they will really need a different name for the Intel OS X to avoid confusion. Maybe Mac OS iX - goes with the iapps naming convention. Whe…
