What is your reaction to using Lion?

This is very consistent with their modus operandi. When confronted with a logical question they can't answer, or with something particularly stupid they've said, they just pretend it never happened.

Heck, Mulligan managed to go 2 for 1 with his/her non-answer to these questions:

Would you help us all out by pointing out concrete examples of an equivalent amount of complaints being registered during the transition between Leopard and Snow Leopard, Tiger and Leopard, Panther and Tiger, Jaguar and Panther, etc.?

Please demostrate that there was the same amount of (or more) "whinging" at these times as there is now about Lion. Tell us specifically what the "whinging" was about then.

Then when it was pointed out how eminently stupid his reply was, he just melted back into the woodwork.

I'd still like to know from him how that growing up thing is coming along.

There ya go DC, I responded, I'd give you a point or 2, if I could.

I'd be happy to hear what led you to that conclusion.

Hey Doc, you can post all you meaningless dribble in one post if you like. Using numerous replies (that are a bit silly) won't make the number of sensible posts in the tread grow. Just makes you look like you are struggling for a clever reply (which you are). And the other post you refer to really wasn't worth a comment on.

Bottoms up old chap

DCChord568 has it right. My first computer was TRS80 (going back to at least 1984). Every single OS change I have made since then has been for the better, including all Mac OS upgrades through Snow Leopard, even the original swithch to OSX. Yes, there have been bugs along the way, but those rarely had anything to do with the intent of the system and the changes that were made to it. In fact nearly all changes represented a natural evolutionary step forward that ultimately enhanced the user experience without completely re-inventing it. It was not necessary to "learn" the new thing because the new thing made sense and was intuitive. Much of that vanished with Lion. I am using Lion on two computers and find it, for the most part, usualble, but there is no doubt that is less intuitive, more labor intensive and wastes more time than any previous system. I suspect that along with all of the things that people have objected to, there are some fundimental changes under the hood that may result in overall better performance, security, or perhaps cloud or 64 bit related, but the user experience for the first time since the original Mac has been (hopefully not) irrevocably changed, and not for the better. If it takes more time to accomplish stuff, even when you know the system and can use it as efficiently as possible, then it is not a good thing. The Mac should make our lives easier and should never move backwards or become more cumbersome like Lion has. Even those who defend it admit that it takes longer to do stuff. Why would anyone want to do that? The claim was made that the vast majority of people who are running Lion are quite satisfied. I wonder how true that is. Amongst my geek friends and professionals including several IT guys, it is univerally despised. If the newbies like it as is, fine. Let them have it, but allow more advanced users to configure it to enhance, not retard workflow. If Apple doesn't, some 3rd party developer will make a killing with a well designed add-on control panel to do just that.

I wonder if you might consider paragraph separations and other grammatical niceties?

Like I said...

You just proved my point. Thank you. Checkmate.

Evidently, English is not your first language.

On the contrary...you proved mine:

"When confronted with a logical question they can't answer, or with something particularly stupid they've said, they just pretend it never happened."

Take a Xanax and go read the tiger through to SL forums. Oh of course you don't want to because you know that my statement was correct and may make you look foolish.......wooops. Too late! lol You seriously have yourself confused within this thread and it's title. My answer is "great, thank you. Never had a problem and would recommend it highly."

Cheers

Just responding to your flow of rambling ignorance.

Spell check works in Lion. There, I said something positive about Lion.

Have a happy day.😁

If this wasn't the net I might consider proofing and using some grammatical and punctuation niceties. At least I was not nasty to everone who disagrees with me and is entitled to their opinion. You, on the other hand, seem to fear ideas that are not your own or that disagree with what you so strongly believe. That's fine, but I thought this was a place to share ideas and make suggestions, not to hassle everyone else about how lame you think they are.

Well, you proved his point. That's even better.

Oh yes that's another thing I like in Lion. Much improved. Very helpful. Thank you

😁😁😁

Have a nice day!
