while i = can’t say it’s my favorite, i just finally bit the bullet too f= rom 10.6.8 and upgraded to mavericks

so far 10.9.2 is working ok - i only lost a couple old apps = that needed carbon - one being golive… got my moneys worth in that o= ne for sure… and then a few random cheap or free type utility apps&h= ellip; it did give a warning pop up that golive would not work, the little = apps i guess were not in the database to be notified about.

some of the stuff in mavericks i find annoying - just g= etting a big consumery - kinda like windows is but not that bad yet…= i dread the day when apple goes full noob and introduces something like Mi= crosoft bob

overall i expected a lot more disruption but so far so = good - been about a week and a half with mavericks

i quit everything, rebooted then did do a full HD backup and then also mad= e sure my time machine was just backed up just before i did the update - to= ok a few hours to do - 1.5 hours to download the update and then probably a= nother 1.5 to install

after reboot was ok. just a couple preference settings,= getting used to the new mail pane on the left (did not want to fight it an= d use the legacy way) just trying to adapt to the new ways so i don’t= get too crotchety and old man sounding.

good luck on it,

dann

Even though it's n= ot broken, it appears the time has come for me to upgrade my main workstati= on (MacPro 5.1) from good old OS X 10.7.5 (lion).

Red Giant Universe will only run in 10.8 and later, plus Lion support (= and compatibility) will soon be dwindling/ending for a few of my main go-to= apps.

So the question is, do I finally move to Mountain Lion or bit= e the bullet and go full bore into Mavericks.

I'm running 10.9.2 on my MacbookPro with no issues, but I don't= do much heavy lifting on that machine.

Suggestions? (please no &quo= t;switch to windows" comments, thanks)
