Uh..... what?

Go to http://www.mammals.org

What? Why on Earth did they purchase that domain name just to redirect to their homepage? What the hell does it have to do with them?

My mind is full of blaaaaargly confusion.

To draw only-meat-consumer into fruits and electronics?

Apple is so greedy that they started buying random domain names...

iKids.com
iSchool.com
Mammals.org
MacMate.com
MyApple.com
YourApple.com

They all make sense besides mammals.org. MyApple, MacMate, and YourApple are obvious, iKids and iSchool both have "i" at the start, reflecting Apple products.
Mammals.org...... nothing.....

Mammal-powered iDevices, perhaps?

erm...

Old Names
Newton.com - Apple's PDA, now discontinued
RipMixBurn.com - Marketing campaign for iTunes
ThinkDifferent.com - Apple Marketing Campaign
eWorld.com - Apple's AOL-like online service
Geoport.com - Old serial connector technology
Next.com - NeXT's old site location before Apple acquired them

Other Names

Appleimac.com - Apple had a legal dispute with a teenager of this domain.
Buy-Different.com
BuyAAPL.com

DigitalHub.com
Dvdstudiopro.com

Most of these don't make sense (btw they all still redirect to Apple.com or Apple.com/something)

It's mammal.org because the people who use iDevices are mammals. Duh.

 

[s4mid4re]

Leopard, Panther, Lion, Snow Leopard.

I'll just leave that here....

But 'mammals' is way too broad
Pantherinae (or panthera perhaps) would actually be the closest classification in which all of those mammals fall under.

Maybe Apple will start naming their products and OS after more and diverse mammals...
