boy looking forward lion. switched macs in 2008 wanted nothing vista. sl enticing. few learning curves in short order perfected needs. in fact, happy owned imac, macmini, mba, ipod classic, nano , itouch 3 & 4 gen!
waited lion upgrade until dec '11, meanwhile read earnestly, bought missing manual , super excited gift myself christmas. did erase re-format install on imac purchased in oct 2008.
bit bummed couldn't open documents went apple store , bought pages. couldn't load pse again went purchase lion compatible version. oops, had apple store problem account visa not corrected online. learned common others , takes few hours apple correct. visa worked again next day , had whole list of software had used wouldn't launch in lion.
slowed down buying stuff , started using new os. gave fair shake- month. went excited purchaser thinking lion , vista similar in frustration building. big jump me.
example, pages. disliked pages save-a-version. happened save-as? why can't open nas file , save-as desktop under name? why have unlock files work on them?
don't relearning everything. had every day new lion system , software.
gave 30 days. 2 days ago had reached exasperation limit. missing manual went bookcase. install disks came out of closet. snow leopard on imac in it's glory. no longer drool on new macs. perhaps in 2-3 years venture out again. cozy, comfortable , productive once again.
found poll on left or kept lion
after posting found poll in google results. surpised didn't surface when first searched forum. think if came macs year have been happier 10.7. it's relearning , repurchasing , reconfiguring made painful me.
