‘Power Nap’ In Mac OS X Mountain Lion Syncs Your Computer While It Sleeps


Apple just announced a new feature to Mac OS X Mountain Lion called Power Nap. It syncs your computer’s email, keeps track of calendars, syncs to Time Capsule, and downloads App Store and system software updates — all while your computer’s asleep.

This is basically Intel’s Smart Connect, just for Apple’s stuff, but it’s one of the cooler this-gen features out there, so this is great news.
