I wander what we would have if we took Leopard and added every feature a
young freckled FaceBook late Tweeter, early thirties, head always in the
iCloud impatiently expecting everything to be delivered to them on a pdf
having automatically started itself, run itself, Googling them the Wiki
link to every smart device they own so all they have to do is wait for the
clock to strike happy hour so they can get back to surfing, socialising and
hopefully a little sexting; and gave it to them.

3,000,000+ sales in 4 days, the most successful OS X release ever, so minus
a bunch of dyed in the wool weirdos who actually do something with their
computer other than web fluff; I guess it would look very much like
Mountain Lion.

The kids at my wife's school all upgraded to ML over the summer break and
none of them seem to have missed a beat. They seem as virtual as every,
I've heard no complaints; but then again I'm not on FaceBook so I wouldn't
know ;-)
