First official OSX Lion SUCKS thread

[Owen Wexler]

Didn’t upgrade to Snow Leopard until over a year after it was released, probably will do the same with Lion.

I will be waiting until 10.7.2 or thereabouts before I switch. Can’t even play with it as my only Mac is a workstation.

Sure you can. Playing is no problem. Check out my tutorial below and see how to play to your heart’s content. Multiple bootable partitions will allow you to achieve a setup as in the diagram below, making any OS and any version of FCP ready for play or work whenever you desire.

It happened to me either. Lion is pretty addictive.

the CCC site says the latest update is ready for Lion. I switched to SuperDuper a couple of years back. One word of caution; after cloning, it’s worth verifying the sizes of the original and clone drive. I cloned a media drive last year, and found that the clone size was quite a bit smaller. I compared folder sizes until I found out that one very large source video file did not copy over (it can’t even copy over when dragging via Finder, to be fair), but I wish that SuperDuper had alerted me to the fact that a file couldn’t copy instead of just saying that the process was complete with no indication.

Hmm..

I’ll say it sucks if I move my browser and every other window starts following it…

I’ll say it sucks if I can only have one browser window open at a time…

I’ll say it sucks if I can’t access my email or send one anymore or can’t communicate with the outside world…

I’ll say it sucks if I can’t change the size of my application windows….

I’ll say it sucks if once I download something I can’t move it…

you know, basic stuff we obviously all took for granted in something else…

[Lucas Way]

…Lion has none of those issues?
