- randomhunt 13y agoYeah his reviews are very good. I do feel it would be nice to have a bit of a comparison section at the end though, to discuss some of the more technical details within the operating system landscape. For example timer coalescing/race to sleep is something I know Windows 8 has and I assume Linux, and the App Nap sounds like a more advanced version of the Metro tombstoning, and I think Linux can do memory compression but Sprite Kit sounds rather unrivalled by first parties. I would love to have his views on it all.
- Shivetya 13y agoEasy install on my ML 2011 iMac i5 6970GPU system. Initial impression, scrolling certainly feels better. Do wish they would leave my desktop background to what I had it set to. Other than that, being an OS upgrade where I don't notice anything odd is key to my satisfaction. 5+ gig download, took about forty minutes, somewhat less I think as I walked off, to install.
- hazz 13y agoThat's strange - my desktop background wasn't changed by the install. Perhaps you were using a ML-included desktop image that was removed in Mavericks? After downloading, it took roughly 20 mins to install.
- Zaheer 13y agoHow do you even read the whole review? 24 pages on a single OS update?? Seriously?
- scotth 13y agoEasy. You skim what you aren't interested in. It's a great review. If you care about your tools, do yourself the favor.
- chm 13y agoYou take an hour of your time. It's a great review. Every page is not the same length, and some you can skim over if you're not interested.
- crag 13y agoI read every page. Great work. Really. It's a great read.
- defective 13y agoSeriously? Thank your lucky stars you were born in the correct generation. You used to have to read a page of text just to get advertised to. http://imgur.com/ljQZgEJ http://imgur.com/ljQZgEJ

- jedberg 13y agoFor the last OS I loaded it up on my iPad and then took it with me for a weekend, reading it whenever I had downtime (we were doing a lot of shopping so there was a lot of downtime). Managed to finish it up by Sunday. I'll probably do the same this time.
- mixmastamyk 13y agoSome enjoy the depth... I do. If you'd prefer an overview, plenty of alternatives at places like cnet or macrumours or whatever.
