Of course, making amazing things simple takes seriously advanced technologies, and OS X is loaded with them. So getting things done is both intuitive and fun. From the desktop, you see when you start up your Mac to the applications you use every day, everything is designed with simplicity and elegance in mind. OS X gives you long battery life by dimming the screen in low-light conditions and even regulating processor activity between keystrokes.Įasy to use and incredibly powerful. Mac notebooks include a Multi-Touch trackpad that lets you pinch, swipe, and tap your way through every app on the system.

OS X works with the processor architecture in your Mac to deliver the best possible performance. Since the software on every Mac is created by the same company that makes the Mac, you get a fully integrated system in which everything works together perfectly. Hardware and software made for each other.

I don't need FaceBook integrated with my OS, nor do I need new 'features' that make my Mac act like a phone! I need an OS update that doesn't break my system and make me waste about 18 hours time over the past 2 weeks ( >3 of those hours working on the phone with Apple ).Apple OS X Lion is built on a rock-solid UNIX foundation, engineered to take full advantage of the technologies in every new Mac, and designed to deliver the most intuitive and integrated computer experience possible. I wish that who ever runs Mac OS software development would say 'Hey, instead of taking the time to implement like 200 new 'features' into another major release, we just took six months and actually worked to fix a bunch of bugs! SW QA at Apple is getting worse and worse. something we are sort of calling '10.7.5.1' or whatever. So instead of being forthright about this and saying 'we really screwed up here', and calling 10.7.5 dead in the water, and releasing a point update to 10.7.6 (which is the RIGHT way to handle SW CM), instead we are copping out and releasing. (However if you called us and got a level-2 tech on the phone, they would admit to you off-the-record that Apple was aware of this problem). However we didn't have the integrity to admit it even though there were tons of discussions about this all over the web and on our own discussion boards. Well, we screwed up big time with the 10.7.5 update, and we have known about this for a few weeks. This is what this really means (from Apple).
