5 Top Features of OS X Lion


John Biggs of CrunchGear had some playing time with the Gold Master of OS X Lion, and gives us the five best things about the upcoming Mac OS X version.

Here are the top 5 features:
  • All My Files View - organize your files your own way
  • Launchpad - iPhone-like icons and app folders
  • AirDrop - sort of like Dropbox for OS X users
  • Mission Control - shows a real-time representation of every app currently running and offers instant access to the windows you currently have open
  • The New Mail - brings a more iPhone-like interface
  • Diskless Install - simply mount the DMG, and run update. No DVD needed
Requirements for OS X Lion
  • Your Mac must have an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
  • You need to have the latest version of OS X Snow Leopard [10.6.8]
  •  You need an internet connection to get OS X Lion  
I'm ready for OS X Lion! rawwr :)
