So today Apple announced the upcoming MacOS 10.12 «Sierra».

The MacOS Sierra will initially be available for testing as a public beta from July, so you can sign up from today to receive a notification when online.
MacOS Sierra will have several new features, starting with Siri for Mac, Yes, and Apple computers are getting the digital assistant. The new OS also brings end-to-end encryption to protect your data and privacy, Picture in Picture (PIP) support, a Universal Clipboard that will allow users copy and paste content (text, images, photos and videos) between devices. It also brings support tabs to all Mac applications that support multiple windows, and support for desktop sharing,
