Every Mac notebook comes with a Multi-Touch trackpad that lets you use a full range of gestures. With iMac, you can choose between the Multi-Touch Magic Mouse or the even more gesture-friendly Magic Trackpad. And you can add either option to Mac mini or Mac Pro.

You can have multiple full-screen apps open at once — along with multiple standard-size apps. And it’s easy to switch between full-screen and desktop views.

 Systemwide support for full-screen apps means you can work and play without distractions, using every inch of your display. Everything looks great full screen, from Mail to iPhoto to Safari. And since full-screen apps use every available pixel, they make working on smaller screens more practical than ever.Go full screen. And back again.Say you like to work with Pages documents in full-screen view. But you prefer to keep iCal in a desktop window. You can have it both ways. Any app with full-screen capability has a full-screen button in the top right of the app window. Just click it and the app fills the screen. Click the button again to bring the app back to the desktop.
Navigation made simple.When your apps take up the entire screen — and you have multiple full-screen apps open at the same time — you need a quick and easy way to move between them. Lion does it with a swipe. Switch from one full-screen app to another by swiping three fingers left or right on the trackpad. Want to see all open full-screen apps at once? Access Mission Control with a three-finger swipe up on the trackpad or by clicking the Mission Control icon in the Dock.
OS X Lion turns Dashboard into a full-screen app that’s easy to get to and a pleasure to view. Mail, iCal, Safari, Photo Booth, FaceTime, Preview, and other built-in apps come with full-screen capability. And apps like iPhoto, iMovie, GarageBand, Keynote, Pages, and Numbers were designed to work even better in full-screen view. So you can go big with just about everything on your Mac.
