I don't mind it, and I am starting to get used to parts of it. Although I spent two hours changing somethings to make it more to my liking. iCal had a leather like skin, which I replaced with the traditional metallic. The scroll is a little weird, and I changed that back to normal. Did not like how Finder automatically shows the all my files thing as a default, and so I removed that. The library folder is hidden by default, and it takes a terminal command to unhide it.
The last time I went into terminal to change anything was to enable the "alt" keys in X11, and change the default "traffic light" button layout in iTunes from horizontal to vertical like the other programs. Consistency is a huge thing for me, and so that bugged me...mainly because I either minimize programs into the dock or use them in the back ground; I never shrink iTunes. Doing things through the terminal isn't so bad anymore given that I have needed to do a lot of command line stuff in Ubuntu and so doing it in OSX isn't really that different.
I do like Launchpad though, and with the track pad it is very easy to swipe through programs. I didn't think I would like it, but it quickly grew on me. Although I don't like the dull look of some of the OS, and a few of my FOSS apps don't work...but I have a Linux HD that can take over any of those needs.
