The torrent of issues with Lion reported on this list over the last few days
has slightly shaken my confidence in the Mac. I was going to order my I Mac
today. I do not think I will be doing so now. Certainly mails with subjects
like Shame on you Apple are food for thought.
Now it seems sensible

The issues only really affect Lion Server, not the regular edition that you'd
get.
Don't be put off by the pessimists. Those who can't get it working and so,
unreservedly, just condemn.
I'm having horrendous problems with Lion Server; but let me tell you that
there's far more that's
Hi Gordon,
I completely agree with you. I haven't personally experienced most of these
bugs people are reporting, so that could mean a lot of things including user
error, and the inability to understand how a feature works. One example is that

Funny you should mention the lack of feedback for downloads. Before Lion was
released, I was having a conversation with Lynne off-list to try to ascertain
(visually) what was going on. there is a visual cue when a download starts,
but absolutely no auditory feedback whatsoever. This

Hi!
Yeah, I ended up bugging this the first time I saw this. I'm glad we can all
collaborate and fix bugs, especially something as minor as this one. It's a bit
strange that this wasn't even considered, since we've even been asking for
sounds when a download completes.

Hello Dónal,
I assume that you and Chris are referring to the lack of an automatic
announcement on the start (and progress) of a download. It has always been
possible to get information on the progress of a download with VoiceOver by

Hi gordon,
For the record, Cups is hardly new or unique to Apple. Linux and Unix systems
have had it for years, and in fact OS X has as well, just somewhat disguised.
It has always been possible to connect to a specific port on your macs and
access Cups's web interface.

Hi Zachary
yes, I know; but not in its current high profile status. Cups has now replaced
printer services totally. For instance if you can access it

That is correct Esther. in the past Safari had a download manager which would
open upon clicking a link that initiated a file download which was not a

between windows. I guess I use tabs as I used to be able to see, and I hated
clutter and too many windows open. Tabs are so neat and clutter free in my
mind's eye too. i am just knit picking I guess, but I

• First, if you ordered an imac now, it may still come with snow leppard. I've
been using lion now for a few days, sure there are some minor issues, but
certainly no show stoppers. I would go ahead and order the imac, you should be
