OS X Lion is Apple's Version of Vista.

So my friend downloaded lion for his macbook pro, and it is just riddled with glitches and stability problems like vista was. the new features are nifty, but the just eat up the CPU. kinda like the sidebar and aero in vista. it runs good on his more powerful machine, but on his low end pro, it just doesnt work well. so me as a mac user, im gonna stick with Snow Leopard (which i now believe is the XP of OS X) and wait until the next version of OS X.

opinions Off-Topicers?

So, it's an even crappier version of a crappy OS.

The first couple versions of OS X were also Apple's Vista- or, considering the timeframe, I guess they were Apple's ME.

I hadn't heard of performance problems, just the new features being useless.

A new version with a bunch of new & pointless knick-knacks. All for only $29.99+tax.

The media will gobble it up.

So, it's an even crappier version of a crappy OS.

Not really hating, it's just nice to poke fun at Macs. Never knew anyone who enjoyed their Mac though. One guy I knew hated OS X so much he emulated Windows 7 on his Mac. :lol:

Shhhh

We can continue this in PM. ;]

I don't have any experience with Vista and am currently using the latest update of OS X Snow leopard. I had a feeling Lion had nothing new but a few knick knacks and the like, no way am I putting down $30 for that. :P I'm perfectly happy with the current OS X.
