Apple lets Mountain Lion roar
News in brief: Developer preview of next version of OS X unveiled
Apple has released a developer preview of the next version of the OS X platform, code-named Mountain Lion, which the company said brings more than 100 new features to the operating system.
The new operating system is currently available to download for registered Mac Developer Programme members, but Apple said it will be made available for other users in "late summer" this year.
New features in OS X 10.8 include an overhauled notifications system, while popular iOS apps such as Notes, Reminders and the Game Center come to Macs for the first time, bringing Apple's mobile and desktop platforms closer together.
