Exactly. This article doesn't even take the latest beta into account, let alone the GM.

This isn't a helpful article to post the day after the final release of an OS, especially not without putting the word "beta" in the title.

Yes, and this was already extensively discussed here on HN less than a month ago:

Just flag this post so it stops appearing, it doesn't provide any new information since that last HN discussion.
