I think people mythologize Snow Leopard. Personally I had multiple very annoying issues[1] in SL that were never resolved until I upgraded to Lion. While I wont say that OS X release after SL have been bug free or had <i>fewer</i> bugs than SL it has always been a trade off - some things got better and others got worse.<p>The only constant is iTunes, it seems to get progressively worse with every release :(<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;discussions.apple.com&#x2F;thread&#x2F;2256080?start=0&amp;tstart=0" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;discussions.apple.com&#x2F;thread&#x2F;2256080?start=0&amp;tstart=...</a>
