Top 10 New Mac OS X Lion Features

While Craig Ferericchi and Phil Schiller said that OS X Lio had over 250 features, he outlined ten of the most important ones for developers at #WWDC. While people with the developer preview have had a lot of these features in the test build for awhile, users will be able to get it on their own machines in July for just $29 through the Mac App Store and only through the Mac App Store.

they do make good laptops. Shame I don't like the OS and they are over priced. They used to be worth it as they were more robust with better quality hardware, not sure now though.

It's the price, and the hassle converting from Windows that puts me off.

Converting wouldn't be too bad to be honest

Most software would look and feel pretty similar, and it's only a case of adjusting the modifying keys (ctrl, alt) in your head. The cost, hough, can be high. Adobe, for example, give a 40% discount if you want to change platform, so you need to find some £600 for CS5.
