I already have a very positive view on Apple's approach to graphical user interfaces, having been a Mac user for over a decade. So I certainly wasn't thinking that Apple would release anything with a clunky GUI. I was thinking about the tablet as a magazine, newspaper, dedicated games console...
Hey mate, no worries. You're just sharing a different perspective, that's all. I get that.
Personally, I'm happy that Apple aren't trying to graft a laptop interface and navigation method on a device with multi-touchscreen capabilities.
