I’m really not sure where all this comes from, and it might just be coincidence – trust me, I’m not implying that Apple is some kind of Neo-Nazi movement in disguise (thinking about when especially the Tiger tank was mostly active). 234/2 “Puma” Mac OS X 10.2 Jaguar Tanks: Jaguar 1 and Jaguar 2 Mac OS X 10.3 Panther Tank: Panther Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger Tanks: Tiger 1 and Tiger 2 Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard Tanks: Leopard 1 and Leopard 2 Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard Haven’t found the corresponding tank yet, but I’m sure it exists… 🙂 Really In German armored vehicles and Apple Mac OS X all these are listed, but please allow me to present a short list: Mac OS X 10.0 Cheetah Tank: Flugabwehrkanonenpanzer Gepard (Gepard in German means Cheetah in English) Mac OS X 10.1 Puma Tank: Sd.Kfz.

Names of tanks and operating system versions Not being just a man, but a computer geek as well, it hit me that the name of German tanks are the same as the name of OS X versions.
