The Latest Report: OS X LION to be released Thursday July 14th (1 Viewer)

[Steve Tannehill]

I just replaced Rosetta-based Microsoft Office X with Microsoft Office Home and Business 2011. It was a gift. Now I can do my resume under Lion. Of course, I probably could have gotten by with Pages, but the price was right.

Looking forward to reviews and compatibility reports, so I can decide whether to upgrade pronto.

Yeah count me in as a wait and see, too, just to make sure that some of my favorite older apps (like MacMP3Gain) aren't broken. Also I know Pro Tools won't work with Lion, so I may only upgrade one of my MBPs to Lion and keep PT on the other one.

I'll move first thing but I haven't been a MAC guy that long so not dependent on anything that should break.

First casualty of Lion...Firefox. It is incompatible with the page swipe left/right gestures. I've had to revert to Safari.

Call me an impulsive idiot (as long as you're smiling when you say it). I just bought and am installing Lion. I read on a forum that MacMP3Gain does work, but even if it doesn't, I still have it on my older MBP which hasn't been updated (and probably won't be for a while). My screen says 8 minutes to go until Lion goodness. I don't really use Firefox now (Chrome, and then Safari are my go-to browsers) so hopefully I won't miss it too much until Mozilla offers an update, which should be fairly soon judging by their track record.
