Lion update from Apple?

This forum seems to concentrate almost exclusively on justifiable complaints about Lion.

Anyone care to guess how long these problems are going to trouble us until "service pack 1" is released?
 
Well. Lion has been out a week and a half now. I would hope or maybe assume that Apple will put out an update for 10.7.1 soon. They're already beta testing 10.7.2 with developers. So 10.7.1 is "out there." I think Apple is maybe combing through the complaints and bugs from the initial release last week and tweaking .7.1 before heading forward with it.

My guess is within the next 10 days.
 
Within the next 2-3 weeks, I would think is most likely. They'll want to get it in before everything they're planning to implement in the fall.

Yes, of course they have. I said that based on the last news about 10.7.1 and 10.7.2 which are allegedly focused in iCloud more than anything else. 😉

C'mon, didn't you see the quotation marks? It was meant as an offhanded jab. 🙄

It just feels like Lion is a bit too much like every new release of Windows. It is hard to believe that they missed all these bugs. Or maybe they just decided to get it out there with the new hardware, and let us find the things that need fixing the worst.

Yeah, I guess that does sound a little like Microsoft.

But that doesn't necessarily mean that these updates will contain no bug fixes. Most of Apple's x.0 releases tend to be very buggy unfortunately.

Windows is always going to be worse because it has to somehow work with infinite combinations of hardware.
