Ahh! You beat me to it, Rages!

#30

That would be an awesome challenge, but no…

But guys keep guesing, you are posting some great ideas.
-R

#31

Jaguar. Like the cars?

#32

Aww, you beat me to it.

#33

Maybe some companies related to defense contracting (i.e. Hummer). =)
Watchmakers, knife makers, clothing contractors, all kinds of them cater to bigger government contracts, and little mom-and-pop stores.

Architectural firms are big with that stuff, too. Lots of them will build anything from multi-million skyscrapers to a $500k log house(though you’re a lucky bastard if you can find a new one that cheap!).

#34

Buffalo
Yahoo(I know exactly what it mean but it seam have another meaning to the word,it’s the popular name for some kind of bird)
Naughty Dog
Raven Software
Mozilla-came from Godzilla :smiley:

#35

o yeah i forgot
Puma :slight_smile:

#36

Could it be “crane”? :shrug:
Lufthansa has the bird type of crane as a logo and the mechanical crane is used in building.

Edit: I guess not: Lufthansa aren’t known for building things and I don’t think Crane is the name of a well known company. Also I missed that clue about it not having anything to do with planes.

Puma sounds good.
How about Wolf tools?
Tiger Beer?
BOA?
Cobra golf

Here are the clues again:

For the first time we will do a challenge around a company.
Brand new idea.
It hit me while boarding a plane last night.
A real company…
The challenge would be about things they build.
It has big clients but it deals also with small accounts.
It has nothing to do with planes,
This company is named after an animal

#37

Not even close…

But their work has been on the headlines lately.

#38

Weta?

Not an animal but a type of insect.

Edit: Check that, insects are animals. And I am not smarter then a 5th Grader.
