I think you said Macs are going from being computers to being appliances. This is surely a bigger issue than wearing a pair of underwear you're not used to. > Some come to have certain expectations of an operaying system and the > GUI standards, one of them is that it won't touch a document unless you > explititly tell it to. Apple change that. For some, this is not a > problem, but for others it is. Perhaps. It doesn't merit the assertion that Macs are becoming no longer computers. In particular, you don't seem to be able to identify computing functions you can no longer accomplish. I think what you want to be saying is that there are features in Lion you don't like (a perfectly reasonable statement). But instead your assertions are about some mysterious categorical change that you can't quantify.
