It bowls me over - every time. From the first OS update I did from Tiger to Leopard I've been amazed how painless an OS upgrade is with Apple.
I know a little about IT and the upgrade of an Operating System is a major big deal. There are many new features, bug releases and updates to consider, and Apple always packs a punch when it comes to new features. Then you have the fact that the file system may have to be upgraded, along with the kernel.
It's not for nothing that a Windows update usually involves several reboots.
However, not only is Yosemite a single reboot (after a 15 minute install which is non too shabby for a 5Gb download!) it remember EVERYTHING.
I mean - what?
It had my settings, my background, my dock icons, my login picture - it even remember which apps were open when I kicked off the install, and where they were located on the screen. If it hadn't been for the fundamental change to styling and the dock I might have thought it had done nothing.
And... it was a free update.
Ok - this stuff costs you a lot when you buy it, but the total cost of ownership and overall satisfaction is superb!
