And one thing more... Stay as long as possible on either 10.5.x or 10.6.x. The 10.7.x is so buggy until now that it in many ways is useless. I find 10.7.x just as buggy and crappy as the old System 7.5.0, which was nearly a disaster!


Here are two videos about Lion that have caused considerable controversy. They are not for the faint-hearted.
The script was written by Geoffrey Heard, I think. :-)

Methinks the poor fellow needs some anger management classes.  ;-)

Here is what I recently posted in an Apple Discussion forum:
I installed Lion a few days after its release on my unibody white MacBook (4 gig RAM) and a few days later on my three year old iMac with only 2 gig RAM.  A month on, some observations:
1. I got used to the new scrolling after about a day. The new gestures made the trackpad I bought almost a year ago for the iMac now seem necessary and more useful. The scrolling and gestures are ideal for a laptop. I used to use the magic mouse with the Macbook but rarely take it with me now and only use it for very detailed work in, say, video editing.
2. 2 gig RAM is the minimum for Lion but the iMac appears unconcerned and seems to run as fast if not faster than it did under Snow Leopard. I do plan on upgrading to 4 gig but the urgency I felt about doing that when I first installed Lion is no longer there.
3. Once I unchecked the preference for Lion to reorder Spaces, I'm like the enhancements of Mission Control even more. Multiple desktops is something I'd gotten used to with Leopard and now with the gestures I find Spaces even more useful.
4. Time Machine (I use an Apple Time Capsule) has presented no problems and I've used TM on a few occasions to retrieve files I had earlier deleted. I'm still amazed how well that works.
5. The Autosave feature has caused me some initial grief because of lack of "Save As," since I often need update documents (newsletters, etc.) with a new name, but I'm getting used to the steps now.
 
A new college semester is starting next week and I am in the midst of multiple syllabi revisions, online course preparation, not to mention the flood of e-mails from the institutions for which I adjunct (I'm now supposedly retired, but teaching as much as fulltime).  Lion on both my Macs has made juggling these multiple tasks (and windows) almost fun, and at least quite managable.
Finally, I know of several friends and some students who have taken the plunge before the semester by buying new Macs, often their first Macs. Their reaction so far has been of the nature, "Why did I wait?" and they mean that in a very positive manner.

And, for this list, I might add, the ability to use NWP full screen is very much appreciated, especially on my 13 inch MacBook.
