So disappointed in Apple

I love Apple products, but last week, Apple really disappointed me. For the first time, Apple made me regret buying the iPhone. Last week, I preordered an iPhone 5 at a Best Buy store, which should have been delivered on the 21st when Apple released them. But Apple did not send Best Buy enough iPhones, which I was so excited about for almost a year, and now I might have to wait 28 days according to Best Buy, which is not their fault because Apple put their stores first, and purposely did not give Best Buy enough iPhones.
I am so disappointed.

Wait until you see how this beast drains your battery. Useless.

Is anyone else significantly disappointed with Apple TV?

I bought it on the basis that I could stream TV from my iPad - various 'on demand' services in the UK allow you to watch it on your ipad but don't allow it to be broadcast to another device. Whilst I appreciate that suppliers of 'on demand' services could allow 'mirroring' I am significantly disappointed with Apple because they know that they only provide mirroring of Apple products (this is far from clear on any of the product descriptions), but most significantly they do not provide equivalent Applications for the Apple TV (probably because they only way that anyone can watch those programmes is to buy them through the Apple store!).

That is incorrect, mirroring is available for all content. It is the developers of said apps that can choose to block it (there are only a few who have though).
Basic airplay is different as it is strictly for audio/video streams, but the developer has to enable the video for it to pass through.
The blockage can be due to licensing but you would have to contact those providers for an official answer.
Native apps require an agreement from both parties, there could be any number of reasons for them not being available.
In any case, ranting is not permitted here. If you have a technical issue that needs assistance then someone can help with that.

I'm so disappointed with Apple!Apple owe me $100!

I've purchased an Apple computer two years ago, I liked Apple so much because I saw they care their customers more than Microsoft, Apple even set Genius Bar and phone support for any technical problem, which I though if I have any problems, I can find customer services easily. So, when thepeople who worked in Apple asked me if I wanted to purchase a printer in promotion with my iBookG4, which was free after I mail my rebate, I purchased it as they told.
However, the problem came! I've waited for my rebate for half year, which was supposed to be three months. Therefore, I called apple for the promotion inquiry, they told me to mail my information again, and so I did. And I waited for another three months, they told me they mailed it to me already, but I never received it. Therefore, I do as they told- wait for another month and they'll mail my rebate to me again. Then, another month came, but I did not received my rebate! And during this two years, I kept calling for my rebate, and they said they will mail it to me, but I never ever received it! I felt like I got deceived! And last time I called, they told me the promotion is closed, but they'll still mail it to me. But again! they didn't! I tried to find anyone who can help me, I went to the retail store, I mail to a costomer service line, but they never ever helped me! My rebate was just a $100 dollar, but seems like Apple is not responsible and do not care about their customers, therefore, I told this to all my friends, and recommend them not to buy Apple.
Apple owe me $100!
My friend told me that Apple is not being responsible, they are lying to me that they mailed my rebate to me. It is because they should first file a lost track on the check that should be mail to me, and then mail my rebate back to me after they file it!
I am so disappointed with Apple, and I'll recommend me and my friends, and try to declare to all the forums we should never purchase anything from Apple because they are not responsible for their costumers!
I'll never stop declaring to the people that Apple is being not responsible until Apple is being responsible and would give me my rebate back!

This is, of course, the wrong place for your gripe. There is nothing we can do about it. There is a legal presumption that a letter mailed is received, but it is rebuttable. Letters can get lost or extremely delayed, I had a postcard take six months from Denver to New York City. Go to Apple and insist that that you never got your check. What really counts is was it cashed. Insist that they check that.

Very disappointed with Apple! ...about my power adapter!

Hi,
My power adapter of my MacBook PRO failed 10 days ago. I went to the only Apple shop in the town and tried to buy one (Monday)... they told me that do not have it! They had all of that junk... but not a power adapter for my MacBook PRO 17 inch...
They told me that they will be getting some on Friday... I waited for 5 days... When I went to the shop on Friday... they told me that they did not get any... What?!
After spending 5 days without power... borrowing different adapters from my friends... I called a service point and managed to order one single power adapter after a 15 minute phone call... the adapter will be here on Thursday?!
11 days... without power... I am very disappointed in Apple... I have been using apple products for a long time... I did not know that they are that bad in any kind of support...
In my class... 4 people bought brand new MacBook PRO laptops in 6 months... Apple is growing... But I am very very disappointed...
I want to send an e-mail about this issue to a customer support service or something like that... What should I do... Could you please help me?
Thanks.

Why didn't you just call the apple customer service. I would've done that the first day. Why do people insist on complaining about something they could easily fix with common sense and one phone call.
Not to mention they are bond to be out of things like that since the demand for 15-17" Pro's are so much higher than that of the 13".

I do not what tech. is lacking in iphone 4 that prevents it to be able to support turn by turn navi. I do not see any difference btw 4 and 4s and yet 4S can support turn by turn. very disappointed with apple and i will not purchase iphone5.

I do not know what tech. s lacking in iphone 4 that prevents it to be able to use turn by turn navi. I do not see any difference between 4 vs 4S and yet 4S is able to support it. I am very disappointed with apple as i was when 4S was released. I will not purchase iphone5 becuase i think its nowhere near what apple calls it "perfect". there are plenty of other phone around. Lumia 920 for example is a much better phone. Just disappointed with apple...

http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/
the fine print in the map section states that turn by turn is only available for 4S and up.

Iphone 5c: Screen cracked, disappointed in Apple

So long story short... Or as short as possible.
Im a big Apple fan, have multiple i-products and a MacBook. My daughter is following in my footsteps with her iPad and an iPhone 5C that she got for Christmas.
One of the reasons we've chosen Apple, is the impression that they give great customer service, and always go above and beyond. (Just look at all the stories online in different Apple forums with people cracking a screen on their iPad, and getting it replaced out of warranty etc.. It seems to be a fairly common occurrence, that people get a goodwill repair and/or replacement...)
Anyways, she came to visit me in Denmark from Canada, for a few weeks, and the other day another girl bumped into her in a store: Her iPhone 5c thats she's holding hits the floor, and bam! The screen has a huge crack, but its only the outer glass thats damaged, and the phone works normally despite the visual crack.
We go to the Apple store in Sweden the next day (there are none in Denmark), to hear what our options are, and the service technician who checks out the phone lets us know that the out of warranty screen replacement (fall damage) will cost us 240$, per Apple Stores policies.
Since the phone originally is from Canada however, and since the phone is under her moms contract, we tell him that we need to confer with her and see what we're going to do. The phone is still working perfectly, so waiting a couple of weeks and getting the screen replacement done in a Canadian Apple store would be significantly cheaper. The tech tells us, that this is fine, and we're welcome anytime to come back and get it done with them if we change our mind, since "we're here for you' or some schlock like that...
Two days later while at home, the phone seem to completely die on us: Screen goes black and it doesn't seem to respond in any way.
Now I've had both an HTC and a Samsung phone die on me from one minute to the next, where the whole motherboard/phone was replaced under warranty, so I know that it DOES happen that a component on the motherboard dies for some reason or another. And since the phone has been working fine for three days after the drop, its unlikely that this is related to the phone being dropped.
So back to the Apple store we go...
We get the same tech that helped us the other day, and after taking the phone out back, he comes back and tells us that they would need to replace the whole phone, and since the phone has been damaged already, we'd have to pay around $400 for the replacement. (Out of warranty replacement, despite the phone being less than 9 months old).
I point out, that this hardly seems reasonable, since despite the outer glass screen being cracked, Apple should still be responsible for the internal parts failing under warranty. (Heck, my former Samsung phone also had a crack on the screen, but that didn't stop them from replacing the motherboard...) And since he saw the phone work fine despite the cracked screen a few days earlier, he knows that it happened well after the crack appeared.
When we left three days previously, he also said that we're welcome back any time to get the screen replacement done, and didn't say anything about us voiding our warranty on the phone, by not having it fixed right then and there.
I ask him if he's positive that the whole phone needs to be replaced, instead of just a screen replacement, and what their diagnostic computer told them out back when they connected it. He said that it was completely dead, and gave an odd explanation about water damage, from water entering through the cracked screen. (Despite that they never opened the phone to check for water damage.)
Now while I'm back at home, I just found out that my Macbook&iTunes can talk to the phone just fine, and it shows up like before, despite the screen being dead. Which means that the Apple tech lied to me, and couldn't be bothered with hooking it up to a computer at all...
I got to say that I'm really disappointed in the service the Apple store showed us. No, I didn't expect to get a brand new phone thrown at us free of charge, but I did expect to get great service, or at least the same level of customer friendly service I've seen in the past when I still had my Samsung and HTC, instead of a tech who couldn't even be bothered to diagnose the second error to see whether just a screen replacement would fix it or not.
Any advice as to what to do next? Would we be better of with trying with a different Apple store, or an Apple store in Canada, or is this the new level of customer service in Apple Stores in general?
I could get the screen replaced elsewhere for around 100$, though I'm not 100% sure if it would fix the error or not. (It seems that it would, since iTunes recognises the phone just fine...) It would void the warranty, but right now my faith in that warranty isn't very high anyways.
I'd appreciate any advice, thanks!

If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:
iPod Service Support and Costs
iPhone Service Support and Costs
iPad Service Support and Costs
There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
1. iResq or Google for others.
2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

After updating to iOS 8 my iphone 4s is like a tetris can i get back to iOS 7? I am completely disappointed in apple, because they allowed iphone 4s to upgrade to ios8

MY phone is freezing every second because of ios8 why apple allowed that upgrade to such old device. I am completely disappointed!

Hey!
As an answer to your question:
Apple made an announcement when they released ios 8 for
-iPhone4s
-iPhone5
-iPhone5s
-iPhone5c
-iPhone6
-iPhone6 Plus
Regarding what you asked, as said by an apple member, ¨Your iPhone4s must be fully reseted by iTunes, so it will be fresh and ready to support ios8¨
Hope this helps

LCD Screen Bleed, a little disappointed with Apple store

I bought my 1st iPhone on launch day and loved it! After the 1st 9 days, it suddenly became VERY hot when charging. Not warm, but hot, and it had never done this before. I made an appointment at my Apple store, and the genius agreed that it was defective and swapped it out on the spot.
He exchanged the SIM card and I walked out with a new phone...I was very happy. The first time my new phone went to the Contacts screen, I saw very noticeable light bleed at the top of the LCD display. There are 3 to 4 blotchy areas across the top that are very bright and seem like a defect to me.
I took this phone to the Genius Bar, and was told that it "was within specs" and that there was nothing they would do about it. We compared it to several other demo phones and some did have uneven lighting at the top, however the genius did agree that mine was worse than any of them. He also said that since the phone was working properly, they would not exchange it.
I have begun looking at every LCD panel I can find. My in-car GPS, my laptop, my computer monitor, and my old cellphone. None of them have this issue around the edge of the screen, so I find it difficult to believe that this is normal.
The defect is most noticeable on the "light" colored screens such as Mail and Safari. What is really annoying is that when surfing in landscape mode, the colors on that particular side become distorted due to the light.
I have to admit that I am now pretty disappointed. After spending $600 on a cellphone I want it to be perfect, and it's not. The fact that Apple was not willing to exchange this keep me as a satisfied customer is very disappointing.
It bothers me so much, that I am considering paying the 10% restocking fee to exchange it for a new one since they won't help me.
Just FYI...I have a Mac Pro, 2 Mac Minis, a nano, and a 5G iPod.

For anyone who hasn't noticed:
Apple is determined to make first generation iPhone buyers happy.
Anyone with a problem, big or small, real or perceived, will be made whole. Since no one really knows what the problems are with this version 1 device, there is bottomless accommodation. Rest assured, any problem will be resolved.
In a company as large as Apple, there are tons of points at which customers deal with employees, and as much as employees are instructed to cater to customer needs, not every human being is the same, and not every Apple employee responds identically. Especially after a long day.
However, in the end, anyone with any kind of problem with their iPhone, will get their problem resolved.
Apple has obviously decided that for this very important product introduction, even serial exchangers get every benefit of the doubt.
Hence posts here along the lines of:
"I am on my 78th iPhone, but am concerned that something is wrong with it. The other day I called my mother in law and her manner was even more rude than usual. Has anyone else noticed this? I am not sure if this is a software or hardware problem, but I am going to my local Apple store tonight and insisting on exchanging this iPhone for a new one. i will call my mother in law from the store and confirm that the new iphone does not include this flaw. (As rude as my mother in law is, she was never this rude on my Blackberry...)"
So to us, the customers:
Don't be a jerk. Don't take advantage. But realize that any problem you have, big or small, will get fixed.

My disappointment with Apple's Service

Since Apple makes it very difficult to just voice a complaint to them, I'll just post it here.
I had an iPhone 3G and went to answer it quickly one day while it was plugged in and the short charging cable made it slip from my hands and hit the corner of my nightstand.
This happened right around when Apple started the screen replacement program. I brought it in and forked over the $199 to get the screen replaced. I asked if I could get the damaged piece back, or at least the LCD since it was in perfect condition (it was mine after all and I was buying a replacement). They said that I couldn't have it because they had to send it back to apple for research (read: putting it on new touch-glass and reselling). I was also notified that my water sensor was triggered on the bottom of my phone and I told them it had never been near water, and it worked fine. When I got my phone back, the metal was separated from the plastic backing slightly and I asked about it and the worker said that it can happen with the replacements like that. I really didn't care. My phone worked fine and it wasn't a big deal.
The problem: about 1 1/2 - 2 weeks later, my new display started losing pixels. I ended up losing about 6-10 rows all the way across the bottom of my screen. I brought it back in because obviously the screen they gave me was faulty (probably off of someone else's cracked screen phone), and they told me that they couldn't do anything to fix it because it looked like the metal was separated from the backing a bit, and the water sensor was triggered so my warranty was void. I understand my overall phone warranty being void because of the water sensor I suppose, but for my replacement screen which was obviously broken at no fault of my own to not be under warranty 2 weeks after buying it??
I'm very disappointed in the way apple handled this situation because I feel like I was robbed of a perfectly good LCD and $199.
Apple, if you are reading this, you need to do a better job of keeping record of what issues are wrong with a phone when you do a service such as a screen replacement so that people don't get screwed over if your replacement is faulty. Poor customer service. I've been stuck with a bad LCD screen for 8 months now because I don't want to pay to have your mistake fixed. I'll make sure to post this everywhere I can so that you can be sure to see this.

Thank you for the feedback link.
Yes there is a repair warranty, I don't remember if it was 30, 60, or 90 days, but either way I was in the window. That's basically what my complaint is. I paid for a service that should have been covered by their warranty and they voided it based off of damages both caused by the repair, and that were there before the repair.

Disappointed with Apple Computers

Hello Friends,
I am sorry to say that I am a bit dissapointed with the Apple Computers.
I prefer a lot more Mac OS to windows or linux but the thing is that one year and a Half I bought a Macbook Pro 15" 2.5 very new in the market at that time and now is broken.
I just visit the Apple Store in Beijing where I live now and they told me the Mother Board is broken and to repair it I need to pay around 7000 RMB = 1000 Dollars because the guarantee is out of date (better I buy a new one). So my meaning is how possible we pay so much for a “probably” good high quality computer machine, maybe the best in the Market and suddenly it gets broken like a 400$ Netbook after one year and a half.
I used that computer in a normal way for Internet, Videos, sometimes some sound and video editing. So now I am really disappointed.
In some Apple Forum some people　told me some Macbook Pro at the time I bought my computer had some problems with theirs NVIDEA Geforce which cause many problems.
I ask you. Anybody know anything about that?. Is there any way I can really know the problem my computer stopped working after such a short time?. Complaint to Apple about that?
Thank you very much.
Regards,
Alberto Cuellar

It's fascinating reading threads like this no one thinks to write to their representative or MP to try and get manufacturers to to give a binding 2 year warranty, unlike the country Alberto currently lives in. At least in the UK 'fit for purpose' or 'fit for sale' falls on retailers and not the makers. Personally I'd be disappointed the product failed after a fairly 'short' time. Whether some people care or not, there is an issue of value for money here, which is a moral issue, if it isn't a legal one. In the end that does affect the perception of a brand - 'a brand is a promise' - so for the outlay Apple products do promise to be 'better' than their competition...

IMovie is still crashing? This is an absolute disaster... I am really disappointed with Apple!!!

I've seen the post about the library files to attempt to delete on old versions of iMovie, but I have the newest version.
I seen the post about the corruption of iMovie files from certain titles... especially "organic main". But I could not export my movie (1min 30 secs) before I added any titles...
I think it might be the "dream" feature that I've added to the photos, but I don't have enough time inside iMovie before the crashes to change.
I can't believe that Apple hasn't done more to fix this in the brand new version. As a life-long apple user (since the commodore 64) I am very disappointed.
Does Apple care that a signiture app is garbage?!?

Apple didn't make the Commodore 64.

Very disappointed with Apple....

I purchased a 20" iMac upon release, had the mid plain replaced five months ago. A week ago the computer wouldn't turn on. No problem, they sent me a new power supply. After installing and turning the computer on, I was treated to a flashing question mark and folder. I attempted to use disk utility and disk warrior but they would not mount. I re installed the OS and noticed no option to archive and all the hard disk space was free. Sure enough, after install everything was gone. Hundreds of hours of work, pictures, music, documents, programs, all of it gone.
I called Apple, talked to the tech person then talked to a product specialist and explained I was no longer comfortable using this computer after two repairs and now worse case scenario, a total wipe of everything, and would like a replacement computer. He said no, since it works fine now and it doesn't fall within the criteria for replacement. I attempted to offer paying money and share the cost of a new computer. I was told if I wanted another computer I's have to pay full price.
This is my first experience with a Mac and I am a little more than disappointed. I just bought a OWC external hard drive and a copy of data rescue. 80% of everything is gone. I now know I should have had an external but never needed one in the 10 years of owning a PC and certainly didn't think of buying one for the Mac. Lesson learned.
Do you think I am being unreasonable asking for a replacement? If not, should I call back and speak to someone else? Any other thoughts?

Christopher:
It's a simple matter of seeing what their return/price matching policy is. Maybe they'll do something, or you may consider their restocking fee (if any) to be acceptable for the upgrade.
I too purchased a new iMac (though I got a display model from a retailer at what then seemed like a good price. Because of the good deal, I pounced, because I had seen nothing on the Mac rumour sites that indicated a new iMac coming out.
Sure enough, here it is. In my case, day 13 of the 15 day return policy (and 30 day price matching). I spoke to the retailer, fully prepared to return my iMac tomorrow for a full refund and buy a new one direct from Apple, but he gave a substantial reduction on the already reduced price.
I'm quite happy. The new features would be nice, but I determined that for me, they're not quite necessary. The refund on my CC is nice enough, thank you.
No computer retailer or electronics manufacturer announces updates like this, as it would completely halt purchases of the current line. It's SOP. However, I would doubt the Apple Store knew absolutely nothing about it, if it was a corporate APPLE store.
Should you be upset? I don't think so. Frustrated, maybe, but it's much like choosing which line to pick at the supermarket checkout - the other one always moves faster.

Im totally disappointed with apple i want my money back

hi
this morning i had a fight with apple suport, i just bought this macbook 2 months ago, and now its dead, and they told me to take my laptop to an apple store and somebody will repair my macbook in there, but im real far away from the nearest apple store and i cant take my macbook to that place, so i request if somebody can come to my place and pick my laptop but neither the apple support or the apple store cant pick it up, because "they dont have that service they cant come to my adress and pick my laptop" now the only thing i have to do is sit and wait until that service its availabe
i really cant go there cause i work and study and i practicaly dont have time to that place.
im totally disappointed with the service and with the computers, i never thought the hardware would be so s hi itty

You must have got someone new at support. I called on a Friday with an issue, FedEx was here on Monday morning with a box to send the unit back in for service and on Wednesday morning it was back to me all repaired--at no cost, I might add. Just call back or use the online Express Lane support.

Thoroughly disappointed with Apple & Lion...

I have never been disapointed with Apple before, but after using Lion for nearly a week I am really upset. I used to work at an Apple Store, I have used Macs since I was about 4, I try to convert all my friends, I follow nearly every rumor site I can find, I use my mac or my iPhone for basically anything I possibly can, and I bring my Mac to work with me and use it instead of my office-supplied PC whenever humanly possible. For the first time ever, I actually chose to use the PC over my Mac because of Lion...
Last night I tried to use TimeMachine to backup my computer to my 2TB G-Drive. After "Preparing backup" for nearly an hour, it finally started to backup and it crawled through the backup slower than I have ever seen it before. After about an hour and a half it finished backing up 24GB. I turned it off for the night thinking it had been running at full capacity for a while and needed a break. Now whenever I boot up my mac, I have one of a few different problems: Either finder will not load at all and my desktop will be blank and the menubar will have gaps in it, or finder will load and none of the icons on the desktop will be responsive and the dock will not load. Earlier I did get it to boot up correctly and I used it for about 30 minutes until I got the pinwheel in safari, then mail became unresponsive, then iCal became unresponsive, then System Prefs became unresponsive... I had to restart my computer and then it got stuck at the grey screen with the spinning wheel on the restart.
Since I have installed and used Lion:
My system is gotten really really slow; evertything from logging in to changing settings to opening applications has become a taxing chore that works by CPU to the bone (I can't even launch Activity Monitor without it freezing up!)
I have gotten the pinwheel on many occasions and I have frequently been forced to force quit apps or force restart my computer
I have had problems with a few of the new getstures; I have gotten fully used to the idea of scrolling up to go down and vice versa, but frequently I will have my thumb on the trackpad and when I scroll up, Mission control will launch (I changed the settings to 4 finger swipe up so this no longer happens, but still annoying Apple wouldn't have thought to address this)
I have noticed minor glitches in many different areas of use; i.e., when logging in with a desktop background that changes on login, the translucent menubar will show the previous photo while the desktop shows the new photo.
Many useful gestures have dissapeared: there is a gesture for swiping through windows in the iTunes store/app store/finder etc. but it is very irritating and not as functional (why couldn't they just use the 2 finger swipe?!?), there is no longer an expose that shows minimized windows (unless you do a 3 finger down with the app already open)
No easy shortcut for fullscreen apps!!! Come on Apple, CMD+CTRL+F is a pain to do with one hand... why not create a simple shortcut or a gesture to enter fullscreen
TimeMachine constantly displays "Last Backup: Delayed" even though it has been less than 24hrs since my last backup
Whenever I try to use the dock (unhide it by moving my mouse to the right side of the screen), the dock rarely responds the first time and I will have to repeatedly move my mouse to the side for the dock to pop up.
For a company that never seems to dissapoint, Lion seems like an absolute disaster. I have had more problems with my computer in the last 6 days than I have had in the last 6 months with Snow Leopard. I think Apple needs to step-up, man-up, acknowledge their customers, acknowledge the complaints from customers, acknowledge the issues customers have found, and work 24-7 until they can release a patch to fix this stuff...

Forums like these exist to help solve people's problems. Happy users don't tend to post on support forums.
You'll find that the huge majority of users are happy, and in fact the feedback on Lion has been very positive.
I would focus on trying to resolve your personal issues, before having a rant about Lion.
First of all, I started off my commenting on issues last week defending Lion and trying to convince everyone that there were some minor issues and that the software was a significant improvement at the least.
The reason why the feedback for Lion has been so positive is the exact reason you claim the discussion boards are all negative. For the most part, people who are upset with Lion are not going to go to the App Store and give Lion a negative review; they are going to search for similar issues online and try to find solutions before giving a bad review.
And personal issues? Either you are trying to insult me by bringing an unrelated matter into this or you are claiming I have not tried to resolve any of the issues stated above. I have spent hours upon hours scouring the discussion board articles for answers to these problems and have found nothing but pleas for help from other members. This is not a rant, it is simply voicing my opinion regarding Lion.
Going back to SL would more than likely cause more problems if not excacerbate the problems that already exist. Not to mention that would be a "sweeping it under the rug" kind of solution...

So disappointed in Apple
