OSX Mavericks

22 October... barely a week left!
I just hope it comes out on time for download...
The OSX Mavericks

The good: (There is really no 'the bad' section... I haven't used it yet!)
1. Tags. Really great if you have a huge junk of files you do not even know about. Its a really easy to get organised using this feature. I'm surely gonna use it.

2. Multiple Screens. Thumbs up if you have an Apple TV, would work quiet well hopefully (haven't got hands on it yet ;P)

But really... this is just the beginning!
Check out the advanced features:
1. App Nap. I personally find it the most interesting, innovative and practical feature of this OSX. It basically puts all the apps that are running in the background (that are not displayed on screen) into a low power and performance requirement, making the Mac much more responsive on the working app. It is said to save battery as well (obviously!)

2. Compressed Memory. Another feature which compresses RAM usage of apps when there is a requirement of extra memory. Perfect if you have a slow Mac.

3. Safari Power Saving. You can turn on extra plugin's and add ons on safari as per requirement, reducing the usage of CPU and memory... making the Mac faster.

There are many more features... check 'em on Apple's website - http://www.apple.com/osx/preview/advanced-technologies.html

Looking foreword to this version of the OSX... its already in its final Gold Master stage for the developers. There is reportedly an update 10.9.1 soon after its public release. Probably bug fixes.

And obviously waiting for the new iPad's and the next generation of Macs(October 22)... If Apple gets it right, it will rule the world!
More coverage on that soon.
