Mavericks is dead. We want Yosemite!!!
On my all-day "productive system" I am still on Mountain Lion (10.8.5). Will upgrade when I feel like - to Mavericks. Probably at the time when 10.10 will appear (so far I haven't seen any feature that got me caught - unless they'd announce OpenGL 4.4 support or some other technical feat of the same calibre).
Hand-off? Yeah, no, not really. Dark Theme? Nice, but not worth the "risk" of upgrading any time soon. "iPhoto in the Cloud"? Sounds interesting - but am a Lightroom user, so not really, no... did I forget anything else that they announced at the WWDC? Ah yes, new APIs like Homekit, that looks interesting... let's see and wait...

Is Mail in Mavericks still behaving badly with Gmail? I cannot upgrade to Mavericks unless Mail is rock solid since my business and livelihood depend on it.
Your business and livelihood depends on GMail? Really?! What is it you do, send spam?

I wouldn't want to work at Apple and be at the Mavericks team when next door the Yosemite team is doing their magic
So you really think that those are two distinct teams? Dream on!

I will never use it because it doesn't support Exchange to automatically receive new emails. The checking once a minute is just too long to wait for new emails in IT.
I can imagine your "about lunchtime now" kind of email conversations:
I'd rather go to "Joe's", they really make some of those nice fat burgers!
> I'd vote for Cindy's - nice ladies there all around!
> > Any opinions about where to go for lunch?
> > > Great, I'm in! Who else want's to join for lunch this time?
> > > > No, haven't read it yet - but on another note: lunch anyone?
> > > > > Did you read the memo yet that I just sent you 5 minutes ago?
Yes, I can feel with you: pretty annoying if you have to press on that "Receive Emails" button every 10 seconds... ruins your whole business life!
