Apple announced today along side its Q3 earnings that it would be releasing its latest Mac operating system, OSX Mountain Lion to the public on the 25^th of July. The OS is an improved version of the current OSX Lion but with iOS-like notifications as well as improvements like Game Center, deeper social network integration and tweaks to the Mail app.

Tim Cook, CEO at Apple wrote: “We’re thrilled with record sales of 17 million iPads in the June quarter. We’ve also just updated the entire MacBook line, will release Mountain Lion tomorrow and will be launching iOS 6 this Fall. We are also really looking forward to the amazing new products we’ve got in the pipeline.”

Apples latest OS will cost $19.99 and will be available for download from the Mac App Store for older macs while the same upgrade will come free to users who purchased a Mac on or after June 11, 2012 but this offer will only last for 30 days.
