I hate to state this, but I just knew that Lion was such a screwing with a GOOD GUI that never needed to happen.

I am still waiting for ML's GUI to be as useful as Snow Leopard's was.  

Sorry for the rant, but I've just seen in the past that when bad design decisions go into a complicated product, they often will stay there for decades, while screwing up the workflows that people had established in the previous (working) version of the GUI.

If Apple spent more time implementing and fixing features than making sure little things animated across the screen, we'd be much better off.

Again, sorry, but it's things like this that just tick me off to no end.  I've been spending too much time in Xcode 4.4

Yes, I agree. I have a friend that I see almost every Saturday morning. If I make a comment about Apple getting sloppy by not fixing something that should have been fixed years ago or introducing a new useless feature that doesn't really work well, I always get the same dumb response ... "Apple's stock went up last week."

For example, Spotlight. It was introduced as a wonderful feature, but it works so badly that I don't bother to use it. I use EasyFind instead. It doesn't get fixed because it's yesterday's iCandy and all the attention goes to today's iCandy.

See calyx end rot.
