Let me give you an example of where I think iOS is significantly worse than even the earliest graphical operating systems from Apple: Multitasking. The number one way I would want to use my iPad daily is to have it in portrait mode with a book or video on the top half and my note book on the bottom. This cannot be done. The only way to split the screen is side by side (which I have never found useful for anything), and only for a couple of predefined widths. Further, I had to go online to find out how any of that worked since it was completely undiscoverable for me. Even further, when switching between apps, they regularly lose state (e.g., Apple's Notes jumps to the top of the document so I have to scroll all the way down to continue). These issues make multitasking on iPad a completely frustrating experience for me. While all of these things were worked out in the very first multitasking graphical user interfaces, where multiple windows would just open and I could move and resize them at will.
