Was there ever any doubt that the geeks at Apple are skiers? Well even if there was, you can now lay those aside as it’s been revealed that Apple’s internal code naming follows a ski-resort logic. So iOS 1.0 was internally known as Alpine, 2.0 was called Big Bear, 3.0 was codenamed Kirkwood, iPad-only offering iOS 3.2 is known at Apple HQ as Wildcat and iOS 4.0 is nicknamed Apex. iOS 5.0 goes under the codename Telluride and upcoming iOS 5.1 effort is called Hoodoo. This doesn’t seem to follow any alphabetic or numerical logic however, although we’re willing to bet that some clever mathematical conspiracy theorist out there will be able to decode the formula into a pattern that spells: “Put all your files in iCloud, now!”
