Mac OS X Lion a Bit of a Disappointment
Well, after using OS X Lion for about 2 [frustrating] weeks, I decided yesterday to downgrade (thank God for TimeMachine) back to Snow Leopard. There were just too many quirky problems and software compatibility issues, particularly surrounding my ColdFusion and Flash Builder installs (not to mention with the Flash Player itself). Today, I also downgraded my Safari 5.1 back to 5.05. Again, too many quirky problems with Flash Player (the debug version). I can't say it's unexpected.....version 1.0 of ANYTHING is generally going to be problematic, but I'm still disappointed. I've come to expect much better from Apple, but their new OS is a bit reminiscent of Vista in the Windows world. Great concepts and high aspirations but, for now, poorly executed. Perhaps their first couple of update releases will resolve some of the issues, but I will thoroughly test before taking the plunge again. My restoration went pretty well, but there were some issues that left me a bit nervous about the validity of the state of my system. Once I fixed Java, however, it's smooth sailing.
