Apple’s new Macbookshave arrived. Earlier today, the store went down whilst Apple employees furiously set about readying its store to feature the new Thunderbolt-enabled Macbook notebooks. It came back up a couple of hours later, much to the joy of Apple fanboys.
One thing that people might have missed is thepreview pagefor Apple’s upcoming operating system refresh; Mac OS X Lion. That page received an update too, featuring new screenshots of mail.app, Auto Save, Versions, Resume and the new Air Drop.
If you didn’t know, Apple has done away with its separate Server and Desktop products, combining them into one standard OS X product, bundled as Lion Server.
Members of the Mac Developer Program can download Lion from the Mac App Store using a special code obtained from the Mac Dev Center. Developers will need an Intel-based, 64-bit Mac running Mac OS X v10.6.6 Snow Leopard to redeem their code.
