It's amazing and infuriating how almost each OS X release breaks many existing applications. They may cost 30$ or 60$ bucks a pop, but then you have to upgrade other vendor's app and it ends up costing you hundreds of dollars.
In Lion, I've read they changed the time machine format. Another reason for me to not upgrade is I'll have to buy something else to replace my MediaSmart server that centralizes all my backups (among other awesome features).
One begins to see the value of Windows backward compatibility approach when your always able to keep using the software you own...
If Apple wants to improve OS X here are 2 basic suggestions:
1- fix this Finder POS; if you want to do anything productive managing more than a few files, you're currently better off using the shell. Not so with Windows Explorer which is actually productive. Heck, I had to resort to using Windows the day I wanted to visually classify in folders thousands of pictures.
2- fix multi-monitor support: the insistence on keep that top menu bar sticking to a single monitor is awful. It hasn't changed since my Mac SE. I find menus sticking to Windows more useful especially when wanting to use more than one screen. Then, in Lion fullscreen, they decide to kill the second monitor? Come on. Show some multi-monitor love for once in your life. Using more than one screen on OS X is a total mess.
