I did this as soon as Lion came out. Bugs are still there. I wonder if calling AppleCare and reporting the issues that way are better at getting their priorities elevated?

I did this as soon as Lion came out. Bugs are still there. I wonder if calling AppleCare and reporting the issues that way are better at getting their priorities elevated?
A couple forum posters (who may or may not own a mac) saying Lion is riddled with bugs is "news reporting" now? Having used the early versions of Vista, I can ensure you that Apple would have to try really hard to screw up an OS launch as much as that.
My only complaint with Lion so far is that Silverlight and to a lesser extent, Flash video seem to really heat up my new Mac Mini, but that's likely plugin related.
I doubt if the voice of a single consumer would cause Apple to change bug priority status. They probably have enough feedback by now to know how many people are being affected by which bug.
But if it makes you feel better by talking on the telephone, sure, why not? After all, that's part of why one pays for AppleCare. You might not get the instant gratification of having your particular issue resolved immediately, but at least you can gripe about it to a live person.
It's not like three people from the OS X engineering teams are gonna suddenly drop what they're doing, work nonstop to find a solution to the problem, then generate a private 10.7.1.1-cougarcat or 10.7.1.1-cvaldes patch and e-mail it to us.
Now if you were a senior VP of engineering at Oracle Corporation and you had five thousand Macs affected by one specific bug, yeah, maybe that telephone call to AppleCare would be a bit more impactful.
All of my applications were re-opened in the correct state after install/restart.
*shrugs*
The shutdown dialogue still doesn't remember if you've unticked the reopen windows check box
Oh, that REALLY sucks.
I don't think this is the right mindset that should be taken with these bugs.
The more data the better -- whether simply as feedback, to debug, or find that right combination that creates the specific problem/fix. Ask many Mac and iOS developers about filing bug reports (radars) with Apple and and they'll tell you giving Apple as much feedback as possible does help resolve issues.
it about time, i have been waiting for this for a week or so. i was having so many problems with 10.7.0
Exactly. My philosophy is to report bugs, even widely-known ones. Also, don't expect that 10.7.1 will fix everything. 10.7.2 will be out early next month, and I'm guessing the final version will have more bug fixes. These were the top priority fixes that we got with 10.7.1.
About time that Apple releases an update to fix some bugs. However, there are clearly a lot more bugs that need to be addressed. Here's to hoping that 10.7.2 gets Lion to roar.
Sweet, the three finger swipe navigation in Finder seems to be fixed. Previously it would only work for me after scrolling up or down inside the window.
Ran the update...everything is working great so far. iTunes &Calendar in full screen mode working fine, all the widgets working good, no issues so far. Which, didn't have any issues really before the update.
All's good here.
Edit: The 2 finger swipe to change calendar months is a little better too, still a little wonky but better than before.

Have you tried 10.7.1 with the latest VLC nightly?

My friend's center channel doesn't work in VLC since installing Lion, and we've been hoping 10.7.1 would be the solution.
Hmm, on my MB running 10.7.0 Firefox hangs with spinning beachball when attempting to run a Java applet.
I'm on a 2011 MPB 15" and all the update's really done for me (being a Chrome user so Safari stuff wasn't an issue) is making everything a little bit snappier.
