Apple on Wednesday unleashed its new Lion operating system, running it on updated, more powerful versions of its MacBook Air ultra-thin laptop. Lion is the latest version of the Macintosh computer operating system and boasts more than 250 added features including handling multi-touch controls.
Sales of Macintosh computers dramatically outpaced the overall market in the recently-ended quarter and Lion is expected to further ramp up interest in Apple products. Lion will be pre-installed on new Macintosh computers and is available for download as an update from the Mac App Store for $30. Updated MacBook Air laptops feature speedier Intel processors, backlit keyboards, and quicker data ports. MacBook Air models range in price from $999 to $1,599 depending on processor speeds, memory and other features.
