The Finder itself to me is no different. Are you talking Expose and Spaces?

I'm reffering to the sidebar in the finder window, before the icons were in a different order and in color.

You can move most, and perhaps all of the icons in the sidebar into a different order. Single click the name of the icon in the sidebar and drag it up or down in the last as needed. Works for me in limited testing under 10.7.4.

Remember how there were like different categories in the previous OS's ? Devices, Shared, Places etc. That is what I am trying to get in Lion. In 10.7 everything is in one "Favorites" list and a little too unorganized for me. Thanks
