OS Mavericks

I've installed it. I see the new apps. I see the distracting new wallpaper. But I can't see anything else different. I think I should ask for my money back.

You paid money without knowing what's going to be new. Methinks you totally deserve it. :)

They went back to the drawing board. And after their talented team worked really hard, they have revolutionize the whole naming convention system. And now it is no longer named after a member of a Cat Family. Now they are after awesome "surfing" locations. Which is the only reason I use my costly apple computer for. And they kept the promise of, not to change that. I say it's worth every penny. ;P OK, now the serious question, did you see any noticeable change in battery life? they have added some new algorithms to improve battery life. Since my older Macbook Air doesn't have Haswell chip, I am going to upgrade it just to get extra battery life.

A lot of them were inflated (a lot) and promoted to features just to allow that big fat +200 on top... :)
Features for China... Those are really a lots of features I'm using on a daily basis :rolleyes:

Maybe there should be an Apple icon for the Message Type so those of us not in the cult can ignore.

Sure, many are overblown, but there are some really good features there. I saw the demos this summer with multi-displays, Finder & Safari improvements - all impressive improvements. In many ways I prefer the latest Mac OS UI to the stagnating & de-emphasized Windows desktop. Wish Microsoft would give the Windows desktop similar attention.

Aren't AppNap, compressed memory and timer coalescing new to Mavericks? And isn't it a free upgrade? /ravi

Yep. They are great under-the-hood technologies. But I want something shiny I can point at :)

My original post was tongue-in-check, but I am disappointed that MacOS seems to be years behind other OSs. Multiscreen support, for instance, really shouldn't be something to crow about. Not in 2013. Regardless, I still love my Macs and my iPads, but I also still love my Ultrabooks and my servers.
