A preview of Mac OS X Lion

February 24th, 2011 by Joseph Ruthaford

The Mac OS X Lion is set up for a public launch in the summer of this year. There are a few new features that I found that I wanted to share with you. The thought is that the Lion takes some of the best ideas from the iPad and brings them to the Mac for the eight OS release for Mac. Lion will have such features as mission control which is the new view of everything that is currently running on your Mac. The Launchpad that is the new home for all of the Mac apps and full screen apps that use the entire Mac display, the Mac App store, the best place to discover, install and automatically updated the Mac apps.
Here are just a few more items that are going to be included in the new Lion OS. A new version of the Mail that has a new widescreen layout that was inspired by the iPad, It also groups related messages into one easy to read timeline, it comes with a more powerful search and will support Microsoft Exchange 2010. The airdrop is a simple way to copy files wirelessly from one mac to another without having to set anything up. An auto save feature that will automatically save your work. The Mac OS X Lion server will be making setting up a server very easy to do and it will also have support for managing OS X Lion, iPad, iPhone and iPod touch devices. This could in fact be the best OS to come from Mac.
