form of windows with dual boot

Slower Operating system

Compatible with most types of software

Much more cheap Only runs windows

operating systems

Features Apple released Mac OSX Lion, the latest

and greatest OS Lion has multi touch gestures, to go back

a page, switch desktops, and many others

Also has a page that is a lot like the ipad/ipod/iphone home screen, to view all your apps

Software Mac OSX comes preloaded with all

software that everyone can use for there everyday life

IPhoto is something people use to store all their pictures they need

Keynote, Pages, and Numbers are like office but they just throw it in for free rather then annoying trials

Garage Band lets people record music or create music digitally

Dual OS capability Mac is the only os that allows you to use

both windows and mac os Programs like parallels and boot camp

allow your mac to have windows as a second operating system

Multi-touch gestures The mac track pad on the Macbooks, or

the external track pad, and the magic mouse allow you to change desktops, switching between apps, and much more

To do this, using multiple fingers to swipe forward, back, up and down, left right and other directions

Started in osx leopard, but perfected in the new lion.
