win some, lose some

Well, wiped the drive & upgraded, and now I have to (a) figure out wtf Mac has changed for all its settings, (b) wtf is up with making me use my admin pw for EVERYTHING, and the most important, (c) MAKING IT DO WHAT I WANT. Sadly, experience has taught me it's the last that'll take the longest (if it's ever achieved). On the plus side, very speedy now! Though I wonder how much of that is because my address book got messed up and/or didn't save to the backup drive, and now... well, that was a lot of addresses. Guess I just need to spend a few days convincing myself that I didn't want to write any of you, anyway. Sheesh. It's always something...

Did you upgrade to Lion? That OS worries me, but I know I'll have to use it someday.

Heh. That sounds remarkably like my upgrade from Ubuntu Maverick, complete with the WTF did you do to the settings and the important data not backing up properly. And, hey, it's nice to know that Ubuntu isn't the only OS idiotically merging its mobile and laptop versions.

(Which is to say, you have my deepest sympathies.)

I'm holding out for when they release Yamapikaryaa.
