    Gee... I already have most of those cool new features, and ever time my OS ships "The greatest upgrade ever", it costs me nothing... man, I love linux, and Ubuntu/Debian in particular.

    Yes, I use the best "tool" for the job.

    OS X sucks, the hardware is great though.

    I'm going to hang back on ordering this. It's a year late, and Apple still haven't managed to release the Gold Master to developers. My feeling is that in order to get it out on time it hasn't been as well tested as previous versions.
