<p>Apple has just seeded Mac OS X Lion to developers and this is something that every developer is going to want to get their hands on. The Max OS X Lion has been quite buggy so far, but this is the first main update for the software.</p>
<p>It seems like Apple went from 11A390 for the initial build to 11A419. That seems to indicate that  a  number of builds were tested out internally before this one was   released.</p>
<p>It is expected that Mac OS X Lion will be released at WWDC which is coming up in a couple of months time.</p>
<p>This build of OS X Lion is for developers only, so make sure you grab it now.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-3306" title="linuxlogo" src="http://crenk.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/linuxlogo-150x150.jpg" alt="linuxlogo" width="150" height="150" />Yes, the operating system that you&#8217;ve never wanted to use is celebrating 40 years of life. As you may know, Unix represents the basis for all Linux distributions; but did you know that also Mac OS X based their operating system versions in Unix? Well, what this operating system represents it&#8217;s a lot more that you may think.</p>
<p>Born in 1969 as &#8220;Unics&#8221; from two guys named Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie, has a long way and a lot of history. Written originally in Assembler programming language, quickly changed the code since one of the founders also developed the &#8220;C&#8221; language. Bill Joy, in 1978 created 1BSD, operating system also based in Unix, that will later represent in other important developments like BSD, FreeBSD, SunOS and Mac OS X.</p>
<p>Other ramifications of this development, produced Minix OS for academic proposals, that later Linus Trovalds will use to build the first Linux distribution in 1991. Here&#8217;s a very <a href="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/50/Unix_history-simple.png">nice picture</a> that will help you understand a lot more of these ramifications:</p>
<p><a href="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/50/Unix_history-simple.png"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-3308" title="Unix_history-simple" src="http://crenk.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/Unix_history-simple-300x190.png" alt="Unix_history-simple" width="300" height="190" /></a></p>
<p>Closing the article, here&#8217;s a quote from Joel Spolsky that talks about Windows and Linux:</p>
<p><em>&#8220;What are the cultural differences between Unix and Windows programmers? There  are many details and subtleties, but for the most part it comes down to one  thing: Unix culture values code which is useful to other programmers, while  Windows culture values code which is useful to non-programmers. This is, of  course, a major simplification, but really, that&#8217;s the big difference: are we  programming for programmers or end users? Everything else is commentary.&#8221;</em>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a class="zem_slink" title="Apple" rel="homepage" href="http://www.apple.com">Apple</a> has always been known for innovation. They&#8217;ve had a lot of failures, but they are one company not afraid to push the boundaries of usability and design. A lot of people are still not on the <a class="zem_slink" title="Mac (rapper)" rel="homepage" href="http://www.myspace.com/macphipps">Mac</a> band-wagon, and there are those that making the conversion as we speak, but as a whole are we really ready for a 3D experience with our OS?</p>
<p>Back on July 11th of this year I reviewed <a href="http://crenk.com/atts-browser-pogo-is-a-no-go/">AT&amp;T&#8217;s Pogo browser</a>, an attempt for a 3D environment based OS that failed miserably simply because the application was so taxing on the computer&#8217;s resources. Having moved on, Pogo has faded into obscurity with little or now usage as far as I know.</p>
<p>Fast forward five months, we now have Apple looking at a 3D environment for Mac OSX. According to the <a href="http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/08/12/11/apple_working_on_3d_mac_os_x_user_interface_images.html">AppleInsider</a>, designers are looking for ways to maximize screen real estate while creating a new experience. While appreciated, earlier attempts have failed, but perhaps it was the execution.</p>
<p>Below is an image that shows the environment, attribution goes to AppleInsider:</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1451" title="patent-081211-2" src="http://crenk.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/patent-081211-2.jpg" alt="patent-081211-2" width="610" height="382" />Here is another thanks to AppleInsider:</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1452" title="patent-081211-6" src="http://crenk.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/patent-081211-6.jpg" alt="patent-081211-6" width="617" height="387" /></p>
<p>These are just a few of the patent images that Apple has filed, and you can see more on AppleInsider.</p>
<p>What are your thoughts on the 3D environment? Necessary or just eye candy. In my experience, Pogo was not a good option because of how taxing it was on resources, but can Apple overcome that downfall and streamline it to integrate flawlessly into their systems?</p>
