I'm glad they've decided to get rid of the little sideways pinstripes on the menus. Also, there's the whole irony bit. . .Vista delays bad, change only UI, Apple delays good, UI changes make for best superiority! I have no idea why that got written Engrish. "

I'm not going to argue about delays, but from all of the arguing I have seen, Mac users are arguing that Vista was delayed for much longer than OS X is going to be delayed. I really don't care. It saves me the money of upgrading for a bit longer :-P I just hope the OS X update impresses me more than Vista did, but I'm not holding my breath. It looks like there will be a few nifty features, but the ooos and aaahs will wear off quickly.

Oh, and frankly, I like the current OS X theme (Unified with Uno) more than this darker theme. It basically looks the same but I like the lighter grays of the current theme. At least they are getting rid of that brushed metal crap!

Yeah, I can't really swallow the idea of a new OS X unless it comes with some pretty kick-ass fundamental changes. I mean, why call it a new version if it's just a new skin and some new compilations of programs I already have the way I like?

Not that I have a Mac anymore, but that sentiment isn't less valid.
