This article from PC Pro discusses the life of Jeff Raskin, who is credited with inventing the Mac for Apple:
Raskin became a strident critic of Apple and Mac OS X in particular. In an interview with MacUser last year, he said, 'Mac OS X, from a user's point of view, has become a morass of obscure detail. Increasingly, we are sent to Terminal to find some piece of data or do some task, and users have to become Unix hackers. The software is bloated, under-documented, and constraining to developers. The old GUI has not scaled well, and Apple tries to fix it by adding, and adding, and adding instead of
rethinking. It is gone from insanely great to insanely gross.'
