Or are you referring to Windows 8?
But yes, I agree that Apple did copy the notifications.

You’re going to sit there with a straight face and tell me Apple didn’t just blatantly rip off features from WP7, Android and ESPECIALLY WebOS?

The only idiot here is you. FYI, while this may shock your puny little iBrain, not every notebook is made out of glossy plastic and sold at Best Buy. There are also those made out of Honeycomb carbon fiber and magnesium, making them lighter, stronger and more flexible than any Crapbook.

But keep on living in your little RDF. It suits you and your ignorance.

I’m SO jealous of an OS that still can’t Cut and Paste over 20 years later.

You guys just keep on trucking along with your Fisher Price OS.

Consumer preference is the key here.

Now that there are notifications etc, try an Evo SGS2 with MIUI instead. Pretty much the same, if not better.

Ulgh. I’d rather everyone not be so fad-hoppy and slavishly parrot “cloud, cloud, cloud”.

Anyway, the new features might sway people who were on the fence and really could get by with much less than a full pc but don’t know any better, but Apple has quite a way to go to get more than a token number of users to switch over.
