Alright, then great. You have stuff to look forward to, as do I. I agree with all that you said.
But saying “I want the cool stuff NOW!” reminds me of my kids who can’t wait to eat candy until after the proper meal. Not every update will be exciting.
I’m not saying I want it now, I’m just saying there’s room to evolve. The idea that operating systems are mature and so aren’t exciting is what I’m taking umbrage with.
