Review: Apple OS X 10.7 Lion

(1/4) > >>

Simon:
Eighteen months after Snow Leopard padded onto the scene, Apple’s latest big cat boasts more than 250 new features.

Many are minor tweaks: for example, you can now pause the screensaver slideshow and search the web from Spotlight.  But Lion also brings more significant changes, beginning with improved support for multitouch gestures with animated feedback. It brings more of the flavour of iOS to MacBook users, bouncing the screen when you scroll to the bottom, for example.

Lion finally brings a full-screen application view, too, hitherto a frustrating omission from OS X. Compatible applications can be switched to full-screen with a new maximise button at the top right of the window. To create a distraction-free environment, Lion even auto-hides the menu bar.
