Chapter 10. The Free Programs

Right out of the box, Mac OS X comes with a healthy assortment of about 50 freebies: programs for sending email, writing documents, doing math, even playing games. Some have been around for years. Others, though, have been given extreme makeovers in Lion. They’re designed not only to show off some of Mac OS X’s most dramatic technologies, but also to let you get real work done without having to invest in additional software.
