10.7: What do you want?

[Neotyguy40]

I made a thread like this a few weeks ago, but it got lost and I can't seem to track it. So I will just start a new thread.

The question is simple. What do you most likely hope for when 10.7 comes?

Divide your answer into 2 sections; consumer and developer. Consumer is for the day to day average person. Developer is for behind the scenes. You don't need both if you can't think of any.

So I will go first:

Consumer:
-Marble UI (Sick of Aqua!)

Developer:
-Some form of Windows usability (similar to crossover, but works better).

What do I want? You do search the posts you started.

But what I really want, my printer to work over my network.

Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms.

And to the other person, I looked through 10 pages of the threads here, I tried to make sure there weren't other recent threads.

BTW, the URL you used is no good because that refers to a particular search session which expires. You probably want to use this instead, which is tied to the actual user and shouldn't expire:

Consumer:

-Fixing all the 10.6 bugs (and any straggling 10.4/10.5 bugs)
-Some innovative new features from Steve presenting them
-Beatles on iTunes... wait, wait, wrong thread and forum...
-Official NTFS support (as opposed to the current unofficial support)

Developer:

-Fixing all the 10.6 bugs (and any straggling 10.4/10.5 bugs)
-Faster updates of JDKs, especially when there's serious security vulns
-Some nice new APIs to work around hacks we currently have to implement for certain stuff
-A better AppStore experience (OK, guess that's really for the iPhone forums...)
-An aggressive campaign that goes after Windows developers and ply them with tons of cool dev tools and extra dev assistance; this grows market share
