Apple’s OS X Lion<\/a>, with more than 250 new features<\/a>, arrives in the Mac App Store this morning for a $30 purchase fee. Obviously, Apple is excited about their product, stating, “People have been doing the same things on computers for years. Clicking. Scrolling. Installing. Saving. With OS\u00a0X Lion, we\u2019ve challenged the accepted way of doing things by introducing new features that change the way you use a computer.”<\/p>\n With increased multi-touch gestures and a simpler interface, Apple is trying to bridge the gap between the successful iPhone iOS interface and its desktop operating system. Familiar gestures like tap-to-zoom and swipe-to-navigate have found themselves more integrated into OS X, while interfaces more similar to iOS’s app layout have popped up in OS X’s Launchpad. These will be ultra-handy with a MacBook with a trackpad, or with Apple’s Magic Trackpad accessory.<\/p>\n
