> The UI you need for a tablet is very different from the UI you need for a desktop. Apple recognizes that and hasn't tried to make the user interfaces the same between the two.

That's just nonsense. Most of the user-visible changes in Lion and the announce features for Mountain Lion are the transfer of iOS UI elements to the desktop (such as the app launcher or Notification Center) and even whole applications (like Notes, Messaging)

That article says that they added "messages, notes, and reminders" to "Mac OS Mountain Lion." I don't see anything in there about making the user interface the same between the desktop and portable devices.

If you didn't see that it was the same app and same ui then you must have not been looking, I don't know what else to say.
