Mac OS X “Lion”

So, after a long hiatus I'm back and kicking things off with an announcement from Apple about the new version of OS X, 10.7 Lion, due out in summer of 2011.  It brings some of the features from the iPad to OS X.  First, one of those features will be an App Store specific for OS X but it's not specific to Lion.  It'll open within the next 90 days and will be added to the current version, Snow Leopard, as well.  Also new is the Launchpad application launcher, which will give you an iPad-like grid of icons and let you create iOS-style folders for applications, and the all-new Mission Control, which offers a unified view of all your open windows, open apps, and your dock.

There's no specific release date as of this writing but look for it sometime in summer of 2011.
