Also they have basically de-balled two included apps that I depended on - Preview and TextEdit - due to the removal of the Save As feature, requiring a totally new non-intuitive dance to change a document (requiring many more steps), and the loss of some of the graphic features in the earlier versions of Preview that were so good I could live without Photoshop. All this for no reason.
I wanted to try *Mountain Goat* Dev preview to see if perhaps they had reconsidered, but I can't seem to get beyond the install.
