Top new features in Mac OSX Lion

[freedrmremoval]

Mac osx Lion have been released for a couple of days, latest Apple Mac products will all be powered by Lion according to its official tech spec. Want to know the best feature of the “250+” present in Apple’s new OS X Lion? I hope you’ll forgive my hands for shaking as I type this, because the very notion of something this revolutionary has got me too excited to type. New features in Lion included:

1. LaunchPad–mimics the way you browse your iPhone’s Apps by simply listing them in a grid. The Launchpad can also be enhanced by adding directories so you can find anything you need in just a few clicks.

2. Full screen applications – Safari, Garage Band, iPhoto, and all standard Apple apps to be full screen

3. Mission control – A unified view of Expose, Spaces and widgets that can be accessed by a three-finger swipe

4. Mac App store – Taking the purchase of apps to another level with the App store built in to the Lion OS, customizable notifications and updates

5. Multi-touch gestures – Use the multi-touch gestures to dynamically and efficiently scroll, zoom, browse through Safari, photos and other files (no more back or forward buttons, just swipe)

6. TAP TO ZOOM-Tap to Zoom simply makes it easy to point your mouse at something, say, a paragraph of small-sized text on a newspaper site, tap on it with two fingers and read it up close. Just like you can’t actually read anything on your smartphone

7. VERSIONS-Adding to this auto-save experience, Versions records your documents on a regular basis as you write them and stores the changes made.

8. LION SERVER-OS X Server isn’t new at all, but instead of having to buy it separately, Lion has it built-in to make it more mainstream and available for the masses.


After installing Lion, there are some must-have apps to help your enjoy the happiness of Lion. Here is my list.

HandBrake -video conversion and dvd ripping.

iPod to Mac-Transfer/backup/copy files from ipod to Lion

PDF Converter for Mac – Convert PDF document to word, excel, powerpoint.

Microsoft Office -document editing, spreadsheet, presentation.

I thought it was already a Tiger version. Am I mistaken?
Should read more on the topic I guess. Sorry to interrupt.
And have a happy New Year!
