Just upgraded to OSX Lion. A very slick interface.

Quick Review:

1. Launchpad. Solved previously by Alfred in the GUI, and bash aliases on the command line.

2. Mission Control. Eye-candy. Will probably use it until I get tired of all the moving windows, and stick to Cmd+arrow keys to switch desktops. Maybe normal users will find it useful. But then, most people don’t want anything that increases their workflow complexity. Most of them have trouble keeping track of more than a couple of windows, let alone, 10s of them (which I think is what features like Mission Control will promote)
