Nothing personal but...thats TERRIBLE!
Not your idea but the picture, for crying out loud :/
How could anybody capture a wild animal like that and chain him indoors?
The picture makes me sick!
Please don't have the bad judgment of posting other pictures like that again.
Not only does it make my stomake turn but makes me feel like crying.
And no...I'm not a wuss, just allergic to cruelty - small scale or big.

I was just looking for any picture of a serval, and this was the topmost in Google.I'm sorry to have offended you and others, that was the last of my intentions. 
Looking at the site it came from, the photo seemed to be taken at a party at the SanMarino library, with a lot of kids. The Serval appeared to be a pet of someone. I suppose it is addomesticated (tame) and has a place of it own to live. Most "wild" animals, when raised and treated properly, do not suffer from living in civilisation.

Take a look at the URL for the picture of the Serval.

San Marino Unified School District. I'm sure this animal lives in a zoo and is well cared for.
This animal was just brought to a school to show the kids. No need for anyone to get upset.
I believe it's illegal to own this animal as it's listed as endangered.

Ok, so everyone seems to be in the mood for staying in the animal kingdom..hmmm...what about Polar, as in Polar Bear? Nah...
The only two I kinda liked so far was Sabertooth and the white tiger (with another name, of course). The Siberian Tiger probably won't work
Whatever they name the next OS, it has to be a name that has a huge likeness to what Apple wants the OS to represent - in many ways.
My question is still: is it necessary for Apple to continue in the jungle?

Cougar is, of course, very American and doesn't mean all that much to us Europeans (although most of us have probably heard of it!)....
Saber-tooth sounds great, but you run into the problem that it's spelt differently over here (Sabre-tooth), although that doesn't normally stop US product designers or marketing executives....
Big Pussy - well even us English have a sense of humour (sorry, humor)!

Almost a year ago I predicted 10.3 would be code-named Saber. I even made this cool picture:

But, almost anyone who was 13 a few years ago and owned a Gameboy knows that the master, nay, the lord of the cats is unquestionably Mew, the psychic Pokemon.
I would love to see Steve Jobs tell everybody the next major update to Mac OS X is named after a character from a TV show that's not even popular anymore. Then this comes up on the screen:

But seriously folks, I think Apple should try and get off the cat names. But, if it had to be a cat I think cougar would be a pretty cool.
