Apple WWDC 2014: Tim Cook Unveils Yosemite
An anonymous reader writes "Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) has started, and OS X 10.10, officially named Yosemite, and iOS 8 have been officially unveiled. Craig Federighi, senior vice president of software engineering, also highlighted iCloud Drive. Although a little late to the party, Apple hopes to compete with the likes of Dropbox and Google Drive."
Widgets - (Store Only) how Retro; Linux users are like WTF and Vista users finally can have a laugh!
Transparency +Dark Theme...Seriously WTF as a member of Gnome Looks Dark themes group seriously...Seriously though rock like its window compositing on linux in 2006...Again Vista Users are now very confused.
Safari(With Bing?) Mail improvements, More Lock in/Cloud(At a price). Single platform...slight at google, costly cloud applications, even with a few tweaks...like a clone of the awesomebar, and a nice payout from Bing, an updated engine...we have yet to see anything like Steve jobs prediction...no wonder he looks sad http://blog.urbanbohemian.com/...

The only...only positive thing here is free upgrades
If the numbers shown in the Keynote are true, only 10% of Android users run Kit Kat. Most users are stuck with versions that are three or four years old.
Ignoring the Low class moves of attacking Android, a platform that continues in hypergrowth while Apple continues to fall behind...Peak Happle happened in 2012. The best thing iOS 8 will not be available in the STILL ON SALE iPhone 4. That is a big fuck you from Apple to its customers.
