From the Public Beta Kodiak Mac OS X to the full version such as the “Puma” – Mac OS 10.1 the Apple Operating system whooped at an expensive US$129 boxed CDs. Mac OS has since grown now to free download and to the way the OS is named. Apple adopted names of animals and among them Lion – Mac Os 10.7 and Mountain Lion 10.8 and also Leopard and Snow Leopard where the famous.

But from 2013 instead Apple adopted iconic names in California hence the September release of that year was Mavericks then Yosemite and the EL Capitan.
