Well, I put Lion on mah Mac today, then upgraded it to Servah. I must say, this will take a long, long time to get used to. It
is quite nice and
definitely different than the experience I've come to know over these past ten years or so. After playing around with Lion for a couple of hours now, I'm still a bit stunned by it all. For example, imagine trying to get used to steering your car in the opposite direction you want to travel. Or riding a bike forwards by pedaling backwards. Braking to accelerate and decelerating with the gas pedal. That's how scrolling now works. And don't go looking around for a grab handle or a slider to move the contents of your window; you have to poke at a Finder window to get one to appear in some far-off place (at about one third of the previous width), and only if you're lucky enough to snag it with your mouse will you be able to manually scroll-by-mouse. I think my favorite thing so far has been the login window:
