Mac's OS X Mavericks will be launching soon with Apple's all new Macbook Pro laptops.

Apple has confirmed another keynote event by sending out press invites for October 22, 2013.

The event, which will take place at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco, California, will be the platform to unveil many awaited products – the iPad 5, iPad Mini 2, new Macbook Pro, and possibly the all new OS X Mavericks.

OS X Mavericks will launch preinstalled with the latest version of Macbook Pros when it is released this week. The revamped Macbook Pro laptops will feature the all-new Intel Haswell processor, along with a super display technology.

Apple introduced the upgraded Mac operating system at the WWDC in June. The 13A598 Golden Master version of OS X Mavericks was released to developers on October 3, 2013.

However, over the weekend, Apple updated its final GM version with a new build – the 13A603 version.

The Golden Master version is the final version to be released to developers before the operating system is officially rolled out to Mac users.

OS X Mavericks is expected to go live on the Mac App store either on October 22 or by the end of the month.

New features for the latest OS X include a new Maps app, a tabbed finder, iBooks, new look to the calendar, improved Safari, iCloud Keychain, multiple displays and more. See Apple's preview of the new features here.

Mountain Lion OS X released on July 25, 2012 for $19.99 last year. The previous year, Apple charged $29.99 to upgrade to OS X Lion. The price for OS X Mavericks for the upgrade will be similar.
