When I first installed Lion on my Macbook, the first thing I noticed was that the scrolling direction was reversed. For example, if I wanted to scroll down a page, I swiped my fingers down on Snow Leopard or any other OS X versions. On Lion, I have to swipe my fingers up to scroll down a page. This works better on a touch screen device like iPhone or iPad. It is kind of awkward on a notebook computer.
