Amaya Toman In today's part of our regular series on native Apple applications, we will focus on one single, but rather important event. Today is the anniversary of the release of the Mac OS X Snow Leopard operating system, which was truly fundamental in many ways for users, software creators, and Apple itself.

Mac OS X Snow Leopard (2009) is coming
On August 28, 2009, Apple released its Mac OS X 10.16 Snow Leopard operating system. This was a very important update, and at the same time the first version of Mac OS X that no longer offered support for Macs with PowerPC processors. It was also the last operating system from Apple that was distributed on an optical disc. Snow Leopard was introduced at the WWDC developer conference in early June 2009, on August 28 of the same year, Apple began its worldwide distribution. Users could purchase Snow Leopard for $29 (roughly CZK 640) on Apple's website and in brick-and-mortar stores. Today, many people can't imagine paying for operating system updates for their Mac, but at the time of Snow Leopard's arrival, it was a significant price cut that resulted in a significant increase in sales. Users have seen improved performance and lower memory requirements with the arrival of this update. Mac OS X Snow Leopard has also seen a number of applications modified to take full advantage of modern Apple computers, and software developers have been given many more options when it comes to creating programs for Snow Leopard. The successor to the Snow Leopard operating system was Max OS X Lion in June 2011.
