Mac OS X Lion Review

  The company, 'Apple' recently released their new operating system, 'Mac OS X Lion.' It is available for purchase on the Application Store on all Mac computers for $29.99. It can also be bought at the Apple store or retailers for $49.99 which includes a USB. Lion is an upgrade to the previous OS, Snow Leopard. Upgrading would result in the new 10.7 update. What features do you get from this? Well, you receive three new things on your dock, Launchpad, Mission Control, and Facetime. This update involves many changes in design, in fact, it was inspired by Ipad/Iphone/Itouch. Launchpad gives you the springboard look of the Ipad, Mission Control shows you all the applications that are on, in an all in one look. Facetime is exactly the same thing as the facetime in the Ipad 2, Iphone, and Ipod Touch 4, it is a video calling application. Along with that, speeds are slightly faster as it neatly cleans your Mac. The touch gestures for your trackpad are revamped and new. It takes time to get used to the new movements but it seems better in a way. One thing that I appreciate is the new full screen features in selected programs. Your photo-booth is totally fullscreen and same goes with you Safari browser! There is also a new feature called 'AirDrop' which allows Lion to Lion  Macs to share files instantly and easy. You can see my video that I made whilst downloading OS X Lion, a day after the release, it shows the important features and is best of all, a commentary!
