  • the only OS related two features are gatekeeper (advanced version of current firewall on lion) and airplay (why dont you buy more iDevices). the all other notes, notifications, twitter, reminder etc. can be achieved via third parties. messages also new ichat which is also available for lion as beta. leopard and sl came out with lots of new and useful features, lion had less, and mountain lion looks almost no useful/significant features.
