苹果升级版Mac直面Windows 8挑战

名为“山狮(Mountain Lion)的新操作系统将于今年晚些时候开始发售，现在购买新款Mac的顾客届时可以升级到新系统。在这场于旧金山举办的年度全球开发者大会上，苹果详细介绍了这款桌面操作系统，以及应用于iPad和iPhone的新一代移动操作系统iOS 6。

Apple also issued new figures for the App Store which suggested the rate of growth is accelerating, as more iPads and iPhones are sold and the store is extended internationally to 155 countries. More than $5bn in revenue – which is split 70 per cent to developers and 30 per cent to Apple – has been paid out to developers in total since the download store launched in mid-2010.

苹果还发布了App Store商店的最新数据。数据表明，随着iPad和iPhone销量增长，App Store进一步国际化，目前已覆盖到155个国家，而且这个应用下载商店的发展速度还在加快。自App Store于2010年中上线以来，用户总计已经向开发者支付了逾50亿美元（其中开发者分得70%，苹果分得30%）。

There are 650,000 apps available in the App Store, up from 600,000 in April, of which 225,000 are dedicated to the iPad.

App Store现有65万款应用，4月份时为60万款。其中22.5万款应用专为iPad开发。

Apple unveiled the new technology to whoops and cheers from adoring developers. Ahead of the keynote, Apple poked fun at rival Samsung with its voice control service Siri, saying it was looking forward to the Korean manufacturer’s new fridge.
