Apple announced 8/24 that their newest Operating System, 10.6 Snow Leopard will be available in stores this coming Friday, 8/28/09. Apple’s newest Operating System will cost $29 for the single user license and $49 for the five-license family pack. Also available are Mac OS X Server 10.6 Snow Leopard ($499) and two upgrade box sets: OS, iWork and iLife ($169) and the five-license family pack, iWork and iLife ($229).

Apple’s engineers have improved more than 1000 features that make Mac OS X what it is. It will include a faster Apple Mail program, Expose Integration in the dock, Quicktime X with a new look and feel that blends into the background and also allows for instant recording, 64-bit version of Safari 4 that is 2x’s faster than its predecessor, a snappier Finder, and much more. Another key feature of the new OS is full Exchange 2007 support with Address Book and iCal. This will allow users to real time (push) their GAL and Calendar data with their fellow PC co-workers. The install will also free up 7 GB of hard drive space for existing OS users once installed, making it Apple smallest OS bundle to date.

Overall, this newest Operating system will speed up and unleash the powers of the Mac Hardware, giving the user a quicker and more fluid computer experience.
