Apple has released a very minor update to its Mac OS X which bumps the OS up to version 10.7.4.

Joining Lego Mindstorm and other bots, Arduino will get RobotC's straightforward sensor and motor controls, along with a debugger and sample program library, while still keeping its native Wiring language.
