Os X Lion (10.7) Experiences

[nullx8]

anyone using OS X Lion already ?

maybe can exchange some experiences ?

overall it seems just a optical upgrade, but serval things going very very smooth compared to Snow Leopard (10.6.6)

application management seems to be improved extremely..

here some screenshoots

All New Launchpad (brings iPad to OSX) [pretty much useless for me .. but kinda cool feature for peoples addicted to windows start menu]

"show applications" like in Snow, but show app icon and do live updating

new "internet accounts"

all new iCal

new Mail.app

Isn't Lion only in developer's preview stage at the moment?

what do you mean by application management being better?

What system are you running it on? Any performance differences? memory usage etc?

Im running on minimal requirements intel dual core.

overall apearance changed back to the "flat-style" window handling is alittle buggy ( resulting of the "better" task management.)

Memory management is dramatically improoved (i haven testet with protected memory yet)

Cons:

Window handling seems alittle buggy, fullscreen & taskmanager are not relly in tune, results in the is apear to be slower, but its only optical issue.

Also in fullscreen its not possible to switch between subwindows.

All the rest is pretty neat

Photoshop need less than half the time to become operational, same for iphoto and aperture.

Device management seems to be improovfed too.

It take longer to boot but well i hardly reboot once a month so that not bother me at all.
