As a general rule, I NEVER upgrade to anything new right after it comes out, whether it is from Apple or someone else. I let others beta test stuff for me. My iMac desktop is still on 10.6.8 (don't remember which animal this is) which is the best Mac OS in my opinion. I recently upgraded my Macbook Pro to Lion only because I needed to run something on it that required the latest Java which in turn requires Lion, and I am not impressed. No bugs, but I liked the previous OS better.
