[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1621794, member: 56379"] Great point Harry…which also got me thinking about something else related to what Jake (MacInWin) said about more users. It's possible that with Mavericks and Yosemite being downloads…and FREE downloads…more folks are upgrading their OS more often…and more quickly then ever before. If folks actually had to pay for the OS upgrades…or actually didn't have the ease of digital downloads…they may not be upgrading the OS as quickly (or as often). For example…with the speed of OS upgrades/versions Apple has been doing (once/year). Some folks running Mountain Lion (10.8)…might have skipped Mavericks…and went straight to Yosemite (if the OS upgrades were not downloads or free downloads). More folks are probably upgrading ASAP when an OS upgrade comes out…installing the "virgin version" (10.10.0 in this case)…which can be more buggy…thus leading to more complaints. So if folks had to pay for an OS upgrade (even a small amount)…or if it wasn't so easy to get…folks might wait a little bit longer before upgrading (maybe not till the 2nd or 3rd update)…when the OS is more stable & fewer bugs. With fewer bugs/problems...there would be fewer complaints.:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
