Mac OS X Lion – Upgrade or Downgrade?
June 29, 2011 on 5:19 pm | No Comments
Before I installed Mac OS X Lion, I was worried that Apple were trying to change OS X into iOS. I’m still a little worried that they might be trying to do that – but it’s not as bad as I’d originally thought.
At this point, I certainly wouldn’t call it an upgrade and it definitely doesn’t feel like a new OS. When you upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 7, you really feel the difference. Lion just has a few new apps and a new front-end GUI that looks worse than the old one.
I guess it wouldn’t work so well if they told everyone they have to pay $30 for a few new apps and to uglify their computer. So they have to say it’s a new OS.

I’m a big fan of the Age of Empires games and have been playing the beta of Age of Empires online for awhile now. I was snooping around the files looking for something that I needed for a side project.
Around the same time, I was watching a few people trying to discuss the possibility of cheating, if it’s going on right now, if it’s possible etc.
