I'm seriously considering switching back to either windows or giving linux a shot. Here are some of my chief complaints with Apple:
1. New products seem dreadfully uninspired
2. I waited a long time for the Iphone 5 but gave up and got an Iphone 4s (delays suck)
2-1. Android phones seem to be catching up or have better features.
3. Lion and Mountain Lion fail to impress - iOS is not what I want on my desktop
4. Java 7 no longer supported on Snow Leopard
5. I don't like creating iCloud dependency
So basically, I feel like a lot of Apple "improvements" over the past 1-2 years seem more like setbacks and bloatware. I want a clean, fast, and easy to use system without all of the extra crap.
I refuse to pay for Mountain lion, so I am going to see if Apple will comp me a free upgrade before I make a decision on my next cycle of system upgrades (running a 2008 macbook and 2010 iMac). Anyone else thinking the same thing?
