Confirmed: Apple can still surprise.
On July 20 of last year, Apple began a journey. With OS X Lion (aka OS X 10.7), the company started taking some of what they had learned from iOS, and the iPad specifically, putting in their more mature OS.
4:07 PM | Talking about losing Mac sales to iPad Cook: We'd rather take away sales from the mac with the iPad than someone else taking away Mac sales. I think iPad cannibalizing some Mac, but taking away more PC sales. Tablets in general will cannibalize PCs.
Forces you to sharpen your message. Good for tablets, customers will decide what to buy. There will still be a strong PC market tho.
5) Despite Linux's maturity, the PC manufacturers have totally failed to get behind it. Personally, I'm writing this in Chromium under Ubuntu on a beautiful Asus Bamboo laptop. And I'll resist the cult of Apple for as long as humanly possible. But the trend is obvious. Even in 2011, PC manufacturers refuse to support Linux (they won't sell a computer with Linux pre-installed, they won't help to make Linux run well on their machines and ensure that drivers are available for graphics cards etc.) Asus added a whole bunch of power management software for the pre-installed Windows 7 on this machine when I bought it. They offer no equivalent for Linux, so my machine runs unnecessarily hot (I have shorter battery-life and probably the machine will die sooner.)
The combined result of the Microsoft debacle, changes to the PC industry and the refusal of PC manufacturers to support Linux is that Apple is the only company which now seems competent enough to make a decent personal computer that you can actually use for software development.
Seriously! Think about going out and buying a computer and you think either it will be a substandard Windows 7 machine (packed with slow, buggy "extras" that the manufacturer was bribed to put there, and without the command-line tools that all professionaldevelopers need and use) or you contemplate getting the same PC and having to install Linux on it yourself and, if it's new, having to deal with driver compatibility issues etc. etc. etc.
Or you go out and pay twice the price but get a machine which is of high build quality, you can trust will do everything you need out of the box, and where the hardware / operating system just work together.
Building Apple’s iPhone in the United States would demand much more than hiring Americans — it would require transforming the national and global economies.

Well, this was probably inevitable. Given that we've already seen Siri respond to custom commands, replace your remote and adjust the temperature in your house, it shouldn't come as a surprise that someone, somewhere has figured out how to make her control Macs.
While Apple continues to grow and dominate many markets, the maturity of Apple’s product line will allow the competition to get its act together and raise the level of competition.

The first Ultrabooks are just hitting the market, but the next generation of the super-svelte laptops are being developed.
What’s most of interest to Apple fans here won’t be the competition finally catching up, but the fact that this same Ivy Bridge platform is what Apple will build the next MacBook Air around, which means that the next Air (and Apple’s other laptops) will finally adopt USB 3.0 as a matter of course. Of course, who needs USB 3.0 when Thunderbolt’s around anyway?

Everyone saw the focus, the insistence, and the scorn for bozos – for people who were happy enough to get by. What people always missed about Jobs at Apple was the agile mind, able and eager to shift from the inside to the outside and back again.
Apple and education have always gone hand in hand, but Cupertino has taken a bold leap with iBooks 2, a full version update offering zero new features for those of us who graduated from school long ago. But for iPad-toting students, the company’s new digital textbook initiative is a revelation.

After over 10 years of Linux I recently switched to OSX on a MacBook Air. I can't say enough good things about the Air hardware, but it's taken me a few months to get completely confortable with the operating system. Here are the apps I've settled on, which I think make for a fairly awesome OSX setup:

If you want to get have your system updated to the latest Mac OSX OS – Mac OS X Lion, then that is very simple to achieve. Just make sure to follow these simple steps.
Update: This guide was written before the Lion was officially released. As we all know it is only available for sale on Mac App Store as of now, so this guide doesn’t apply to the retail release. Please follow this guide on how to upgrade to official Lion release. Also, Apple is going to sell Lion OS loaded on Pen Drives. So, you might wanna wait for that if you can’t download 3-4 GB of data.
