Apple previews upcoming Mac OS X Lion

At a special Mac-focused event in Cupertino on Wednesday, Apple previewed the next version of its OS X operating system, called Lion.

Apple’s focus for Lion is bringing many iOS features back to the Mac.

Lion will bring a Mac App Store to the Mac, similar to the App Store for the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. You’ll be able to purchase and download Mac apps the same way you do on iOS devices, with integrated app updates. The Mac App Store will be one way to get Mac OS apps, but developers can still sell apps as they do now…
