At the WWDC Keynote 2011, Phil is back with the mac app store saying  ”you can get your software right from the comfort of your home on your Mac.” The Mac App Store is now the e #1 channel for buying PC software.

Phil states, “Now when you launch an application in Lion it brings you right back to where you left off.” This includes windows, selections, tools, and also  highlighted text that appear the same way as left them. Autosave is another great  feature included in the OS X Lion. ”The one time you might forget to save what you’re doing, something goes wrong… Why can’t the computer help you? That’s what Lion does.” Lion will automatically save the document for you without you having to do anything. Phil further explains ”A completely new version of Mail in Lion. It’s beautiful.” In the new version of Mail in Lion there are two or three-column view, snippets on the left, and a favorites bar to get to your hottest folders. The OS X Lion will be available to all Mac users in July for only $29.99- right from the Mac App Store.  Related Posts WWDC 2011 Announcement Live Coverage Recap: Mac OS X Lion, iOS 5, and iCloud WWDC 2011 Live: No iPhone 5 Announcement Watch WWDC 2011 Live Stream
