In Topic: OSX has a superior UI to Windows

20 September 2011 - 06:38 PM

That article makes some great points and taught me a few things that i hadn't thought about before. However, i still prefer the windows 7's GUI to OS X. OS X has all these cool features for window management (mission control) and a shiny, pretty looking dock. But when I'm typing in Word or on the web in Chrome or Firefox I just want the application to take up the entire screen, and to switch between windows with a simple taskbar. I also like being able to snap two windows side by side neatly using aero snap instead of dragging windows in OS X.

Well, actually you SHOULD own a copy of SL in order to fill the requirements of purchasing and installing Lion ....



What I'm saying is: Lets say you never owned an apple computer and therefore you don't own a copy of snow leopard. Then you buy a new computer with Lion installed and you lose the recovery partition (very possible if you're messing around with the hard drive or if the hard drive fails).

If there is no recovery media you would then have to buy Snow Leopard, and buy Lion again.

That just seems silly, so i think there will be recovery media.

Good point. Kinda forgot about the recovery partition.
I wonder how Tiger and Leopard users would get the update though?



But what if you accidentally deleted the recovery partition or had a hard drive crash? Would you then have to go and buy a copy of mac os again?

Would somebody in that situation today have to buy a copy of Snow Leopard in order to upgrade to Lion?
