Similarly, the new Launchpad gives you a compact icon view of all the apps on your system, so you can choose one to open. The result though, is cluttered and unneeded. It’s supposed to mimic an iPad’s homescreen.

In creating OS X Lion, Apple’s programmers brainstormed clever ways that the Mac operating system could look and feel more like their bestselling tablet. Plus, Lion has over 250 new features, and many of the smaller ones are genuinely useful. Apple isn’t messing around with that family license anymore. The price is only $29, and it’s good for all your household’s computers. Which isn’t to say it isn’t worth upgrading. No doubt experienced users will turn off or simply never use many of biggest features of the new OS.
