Apple are con-artists, they're always releasing pointless new OS's.

I really don't like their new way of thinking...was always for "make mobile like the desktop" and they seem to go the other way round. Not sure if i want my desktop computer to become more and more like the iPad.

But hey, improvements are always welcome, ain't they ?

It's not just Apple, Microsoft is going like that as well. With Windows 8.

@PuttabongIf you ask me, mobility is the way to go.

I like mobility as long as it doesn't affect the usability

@PuttabongIf you ask me, mobility is the way to go.

My 55" big screen is a bit much to lug around. What's the point of mobility on a desktop?

I'm talking about the direction of progress of computers as a whole - in the view of my little mind. Large desktops are here to stay of course.

Apple is on its way of brilliantly merging the two worlds of Mac OS and iOS more and more.

Yes, Just like Android is combining Tablets and Phone, soon netbooks as well.

Could have been my words, until I got a Magic Trackpad for christmas.
Know what? I freaking love using all these gestures & Co on my 1080p display - I never would have thought that until I tried it.
My mouse has already moved to the cupboard - mostlikely forever.

One good example that Apple already did a briliant job on merging these two worlds, without the loss of any usability.

Alltough ML doesn't have that much new features that I am interested in, just that messages thing right side of the screen looks pretty attractive to me.

I have it running right now on my MacBook Pro (ML DP4).
Apart from the features they announced they did an amazing job on the kernel, drivers and frameworks.
A lot of new developer routines are avaiable and they work pretty damn well.
It's more stable than 10.7.4 (which I abandoned because of bugs).
I anxiously await the final release and will definitely buy it.
