When Apple execs unveiled OS X Yosemite at WWDC 2014 it soon became clear that Apple wanted to embrace desktop users, perhaps more so than Microsoft with Windows 8. Our recent poll showed just how unhappy you have been with Windows 8 and that’s despite the attempts to put things right with Windows 8.1.
So let’s take a look at what OS X Yosemite can offer you that Windows 8 can’t.
Make And Pick Up Phone Calls From Your Mac
Have you ever been in the middle of something on your computer and then you hear your phone ring from the other side of the house? It can be irritating if you have to break off what you are doing to hunt down your phone, only to find that the person rings off just as you pick it up! Well that will no longer be a problem thanks to OS X Yosemite. It will allow you to make and pick up calls on your phone through your Mac computer. A very handy feature!
