The Lion Dilemma

How long can I hold out before I upgrade to Mac OS X Lion?  I’ve made it four months thus far, and my plan is to make it until at least the new year.  It wasn’t always like this: I used to upgrade to the new OS as soon as I could get my hands on the install disk.  But now it seems I wait longer and longer as we go through the big cat family.  Why?

“I’m starting to hate Mac OS X,” Mac expert Tim O’Reilly said in a recent Google+ post.  “Each successive release of Mac OS X gets worse.”  I have to agree.  I waited a long time before upgrading to Snow Leopard, and will wait even longer for Lion.  My beef is with the iOS-ification of Lion.  I like iOS — on my phone.  I like Mac OS X on my Mac.  What about you?  Raise your voice in the comments, Twitter, or Facebook and let me know if agree.
