Smooth running and efficient, Fully featured, Tightly integrated with iOS 7, Cleaner looking, Smart new power management features
Minor inconsistencies here and there
Once again, Mavericks shows that Apple got things right when it chose to create separate operating systems for computers on one hand, and for phones and tablets on the other. OS X is the smoothest, most reliable, most convenient, and most manageable cons...
Tabs in Finder, Useful new apps, Enhanced performance, Great multi, display improvements
Suboptimal tagging, Some elements still pig, ugly, Few moments of excitement, Feels a bit unfinished
On balance, the experience is positive, but there's a feeling Mavericks is a touch unfinished and that this iteration of OS X was rushed. Our hope is that Mavericks represents further evidence of Apple rapidly iterating OS X, bringing new features and id...

Abstract: Mavericks has plenty of modest refinements that add up to a system well worth the upgrade - even if Apple weren't giving it away for free.Many years ago, Web surfing changed dramatically when the Opera browser offered a way to open multiple Web pages in t...
Abstract: At least, that's what the arrival of Mac OS X Mavericks 10.9 feels like, such has been the deafening noise accompanying the build-up to the launch of Apple 's iOS 7 . A humble Mac desktop point release? It never stood a chance.Packed with new features and...
Abstract: I woke up yesterday (a bit difficult, because I stayed up the night before to watch the Apple Event) and proceeded to download the new, free OS X 10.9 upgrade, or as it's better known, Mavericks .Frankly, I was willing to shell out upwards of US$30-$50 fo...

Mac OS X Mavericks te ofrece nuevas aplicaciones, simplifica alguna funcionalidades y mejora la eficiencia de la batería en las computadoras portátiles, ofreciendo un poco más de duración de batería
Las funcionalidades más antiguas como GateKeeper y LaunchPad, podrían haber incluido algunas actualizaciones, pero se quedan intactas en Mavericks
Al ser una actualización gratuita que te da más aplicaciones, características mejoradas y un mejor desempeño, no hay realmente ninguna razón para no colocar Mavericks en tu Mac....
