Lately Apple announced the release of their newest Mac OS X version at this years WDC- Worldwide Developers Conference, and its called "El Capitan."

Like the majestic rock formation its named after (located within Yosemite National Park), El Capitan promises to emphasize and expand on some of the great features we used on 10.10 Yosemite.

If you cant wait for few months to try out some of the new features coming this fall, like more intuitive Spotlight searches and improved window management, then do sign up for the Public Beta preview, which isnt exclusive to just developers.

To sign up for the Public Beta preview right now, visit the Apple Beta Software Program page.

Start by hitting "Sign Up," then enter in your Apple ID credentials and accept the agreement to join the OS X Beta Program. This will sign you for both the iOS 9 and OS X 10.11 Public Betas. If youre already a member, just sign in.

Then move to the Enroll Your Devices page for Mac OS X and hit the "Download" the OS X El Capitan Public Beta" button.

This will open up the Mac App Store, automatically redeem your redemption code, and start downloading the El Capitan Public Beta.

Once youve downloaded it, I suggest you create a boot-able install disk before you install it. That way you can install it on your other Macs too without having to re-download the file. Also, its better to create a separate partition for El Capitan, so your Yosemite one is unharmed.
