What was Apple thinking?!" Lion feels like Windows Vista with 10Million Betatesters. The SnoLeopard Spaces was perfect. Why have they changed it? I understand, that they have to add new Features to sell theit stuff. But why can't i download old Spaces in Lion? I hate Lion. Its slow and i cannot work on in productive way... “I can’t work this way. What was Apple thinking?!”

I'm actually considering wiping my machine and downgrading back to 10.6...something I've never considered doing with any previous releases of OSX. This is very, very sad. I couldn’t agree more!!

Heck, when you go into Mission Control, it doesn't even show the thumbnail desktops paired by monitor arrangement, but rather shows each monitor's thumbnails on its own monitor. Thus it is virtually impossible to cognitively associate the thumbnails for one monitor with those for another. The monitors are not distinct; they are a functioning set that comprise an overall "workspace". That cohesiveness needs to be preserved (as it was in Spaces). Furthermore, it is impossible to drag windows between desktops across the multi-monitor Mission Control UI. Even worse, the UI ACTS LIKE IT WILL WORK, but then at the last second fails!

I'm a developer and the new system sucks. And for some reason the Control left/right keyboard shortcuts play a very slow slide animation that hides all the desktop icons until the animation is complete. There's no way that I've found to increase or eliminate the keyboard-activated animation to be at least as fast as the Control-1,2,3 direct switch that uses the "old" 10.6 fast slide If anyone knows a way to fix the left/right slow animation please post it!! PLEASE bring back the old Spaces!!

Want Spaces back! I used to have 16 spaces and switched up down left right between them very fast with control and arrow keys. Now I can only go left or right. It is less productive for me. I want a square grid back. That made it easier to navigate. I second on that. Want Spaces back!

Add more Desktops, and the lines for them will automagically appear, and then you can check them.
