Preview: OS X Lion’s 250+ New Features Pt. VI

June 29, 2011 by Brian Ball

mac-os-x-lion

With over 54 million active worldwide Mac users already using Mac OS to the test, it is no big surprise to discover Steve Jobs‘ unveiling of Mac OS X Lion in the coming weeks.  In fact, we’ve been anticipating the conjunction of features previously seen only within the mobile iOS software into the desktop/laptop-based Mac OS X line since iOS 4 (April 2010).

In today’s posting we will take our readers through the sixth round of our favorite new features found within Mac OS X Lion, which will be available for purchase/upgrade this July.

QuickTime Player

Screen Sharing

Security

Spotlight

System

In Conclusion…

The above features, coupled with those found in Pt. I, Pt. II, Pt. III, Pt. IV, Pt. V and the upcoming Pt. VII of our OS X Lion preview are merely the tip of an iceberg comprised of 250+ new features found within what may very well be the best operating system ever created!
