Maybe he reads, contemplates, and writes considerably faster than you can. I did notice you've been a member for 2 years and have yet to learn how to quote the post to which you're referring; but that's fine, we all advance at different rates.
The point we started with, and that others were stating is, that he didn't have to be so rude with his posts. He needed a taste of is own medicine.
The best thing to do with TS is ignore him. Trying to engage him does not work and can be very frustrating. Note my link to a discussion on iOS7 last year. I admit trying, but to no avail. Then I watched how he treats/considers others and just decided to block him.

You're right. I guess some people are just rude or who knows what's going on in his life. Either way, it's not worth our getting worked up over him.
Downloaded and installed with no problems. I like the way it looks and have noticed some nice new features. Installed iTunes 12 beta. Purchased HD movies will not play but standard ones will. Has never been a problem before. Must be HDCP issue somehow. Update soon I hope?
Explain what is rude about calling someone who performs a moronic task a moron.
Rude or not it does violate the one rule AI has about ad hominem attacks. Always refer to the comment as moronic, not the person making the moronic comment.

Ah, but that refers to users of AI. These are not. Websites always have an influx of new users when a product is released/announced, etc.; hence “here come”.
2. Attacks against anyone NOT a member of AI, including AI itself, are allowed.
For example, I can call the entirety of the Voluntary Human Extinction Movement “morons”. “Psychopaths,” even. I imagine on the VHEM forum you can’t do that, however.

The only things I had issues with were Boot Time 50-63 secs. or froze and had to reboot. Java is buggy with it right now and clearing your History causes you to have to sign in on all and everything using a saved password. Why? No clue.
UPSIDE. SHUT DOWN is almost instantaneous. 5-10 secs.
Same iMac here, but I am running 10.10 on a Mac mini in Target Display Mode. 10.10 will not be installed in the iMac (one of my primary machines) unless there are some changes to the UI.
I'm not having issues as in problems with an improper install. My issue is the design of the UI. The promo pics I had seen (Apple's site, etc) led me to expect some of what I am seeing. Personally, I don't really like it. My reaction is no where as strong as it was to iOS7; at least with Yosemite they could fix it with just a few tweaks, or allow the user to change settings.
As I said above, I like the ability to chose icon size in side bars. Hopefully, more options for more settings will be added. The machines can surely handle it now.
Back a few months I worried that design elements, overall design concept or whatever, similar to iOS would creep into Mac OS and thought I might not jump for the new design. My concerns are being confirmed. But I will be quick to admit it might just be my tastes in design; I find many modern design elements difficult to swallow. I guess I am a little more dated than I thought I was!
Not to worry. I bought a new Mac Pro this spring and am therefore perfectly set for the next couple of years if need be. The Mac mini is old and almost never used after I ran into trouble with a 3D app I use (Carrara); the distributed rendering was broken by Mavericks and thus the machine is no longer needed. Sadly, the makers of the app, Daz in Utah, do not seem interested in updating it so I have to make do with what I have.
I use my Mini more than the iMac because it's basically my media center, and I use my Widows computer more than both. It has a couple of Titans in SLI.
The U.I. Literally looks almost the same. I can look at both at the same time right now. The icons are designed a little better and that's about it. The transparency is minimal and non-obtrusive. It looks like Tallest Skill doesn't have much to worry about. It automatically sends a report when a program fails with your permission. It was quite slow at first, however after spotlight checked everything out it seems pretty smooth.
I've thought about buying a base Mac Pro to replace my "media center" Mini. I'm waiting for HDMI 2.0 and 60p. I think that's the next step for the mini. At this point I do almost everything in 4k and even the Pro will not do 60p.

I think I seem to be one tick on that counter! And, you reminded me: the trash can in the dock is, well, not what I would expect if they spent as much time on it as Craig suggested. Reminds me of a Sith Lord or something like that (sorry, I am not up on my Star Wars characters).
4K! Just last year I finally bought a 60p capable full HD (1920x1080) video cam (Canon XA20) and last week grabbed a GoPro (will upgrade if a new one comes out with better than 15fps 4K). My new interest is time lapse. Also, finally, I want to take some videos in the rivers near my house; lots of interesting life forms down there. Enough to create several seasons of Star Trek, probably.
I will fire up Yosemite again tomorrow, but just on the 1920x1080 display. I don't have problems with TDM and my MacPro, but the Mini might be distorting things.
I am trying to like Yosemite. Really. I would like to love it. So far, that just isn't the case, and I have been bracing for that for a year since iOS7 was released.
I honestly feel that Apple is treating us like their children and holding our hands and walking us into the new OS X and telling us we will learn to accept what they have done. I remember reading articles and some friends saying Apple would never make OS X look like iOS 7 and I kept disagreeing.
I told them Apple continued to talk about continuity for both systems and the only way to get to that point is to make them look and work alike at some point. The only great thing about it is it's not being force fed to us like MS does to the masses by just stopping support for the older OS's and forcing you to accept the NEW thing.
I have different machines running different OS X variants and will probably never update them as they serve a purpose and I see no need in disturbing the force. " src="http://forums-files.appleinsider.com/images/smilies//lol.gif" />

I guess not everyone can know it all like you.
Or, you know, either express your differing opinion intelligently or prove me wrong where I’m wrong. The above isn’t a response.

I’ll wait.
And wait for that supposed medicine, as well.

And rightly so. Do you close your eyes every time you take a step? Heaven’s sake.

And here come 10,000 morons who install this and then whine about things being broken.
I didn't realise that the Grand Old Duke of York frequented this forum.
Between September 21 and December 21. Early hibernation, I guess.
So funny! I love to imagine him curling into a ball and settling down for a couple of months somewhere in Canada until the fall.
Ha! We call him ‘noble’ over here.
