Whilst I wait for Lion to download

Whilst I wait for Lion to download I thought I’d have a look at what I’m spending £20.99 on.

Lifehacker ran a side by side boot up of Lion vs Snow Leopard. The results are interesting.

Looking at twitter the comment about Lion are very positive. Although it’s fairly obvious a lot of people haven’t read that they need to update Snow Leopard before they install Lion. :Fail:

Microsoft’s keynote had a very interesting demo of Disneyland Adventures, and it does look fun. But the demo is.. well all I can say is fist bump.

Jasper Dekker‘s “touchless tap” is controlled with hand gestures only for “increased hygiene in the kitchen context”. (Speed of gesture determines the intensity of water flow; while consecutive gestures can be employed for fine-tuning.)
