Ironically, I think you're onto something... It's not the stench of Microsoft, but it is crossing something out... as in all of the aqua-jelly textured OS elements.

Brace yourselves on monday, "I'm gonna stick with Snow Leopard" comments are coming
But maybe there is some truth in this.
SL is quite special. I can't remember an "I'm gonna stick with ..." reaction with other OS X versions that lasts as long as the Snow Leopard case.
I never read " I'm gonna stick with Tiger" in 2009 (the release date of SL and also 2 years after the end of Tiger)

I like that guy actually. He seems a little bit embarrassed on the stage but he's very likeable and I have a feeling that the best parts of L & ML came from him (and his developers). Combine that with Ive's superb sense for design and we'll get something awesome.
Oh that's for OS X. It looked like surrealistic poster some Batman foe hoisted in a campaign to get rid of the ocean. Strikes me as minimalism one notch too tight. Just doesn't feel right. Maybe it will make sense Mon. Today it does not for me.
It will be, eventually. First they need to push out developer only beta releases. Don't forget, Apple pulled a bunch of internal devs away from OS X so they could plow through iOS 7.
Because of this, it's pretty obvious there's going to be a push for the next iPhone (THE CASH COW) and possibly other iOS devices before OS X 10.9 is released.
Also, a reminder, the Retina MacBook Pro originally shipped with OS X Lion installed. Mountain Lion shipped later. So, don't think you won't see something like a MacBook Air refresh announcement (running ML 10.8.4) available immediately, and related announcements for the coming three to six months.
If you don't like minimalism, then why are you interested in a minimalist brand like Apple?
Perhaps a banner like 'this' might be more to your taste...
haha reminds me of this

then it wouldnt be called os x 11 would it. It'd be called os xi or os 11
----------
x = 10.
os x 11.0? (j/k.)
New features, UI changes, and "iOS-ification" aside, here's the REAL question:
Will Apple re-implement the sweet "Welcome" videos? I really missed that in Lion and Mountain Lion.
Perhaps it's a reflection on the OS overall... you know you're getting a good OS when the first bootup comes with a snazzy tune and slick animations.
