For one reason or another, Apple has failed to document one rather important change in OS X 10.7.2, the second incremental software update to its Lion operating system.

Upon accessing Launchpad, the feature that gives you instant access to all the apps on your Mac, customers who updated to OS X 10.7.2 will surely notice that the icons populating each screen have gotten bigger.

The aesthetically pleasant change also does well to improve the accuracy of the user when browsing for a certain application, and especially for those with less than 20/20 vision.

The Launchpad utility itself seems to be snappier, both in swiping through screens, and in launching and closing.

You can mention other non-documented changes that you may have discovered in OS X 10.7.2 using the comments. Also, do you like the new Launchpad?

LOVE that little update. A lot of annoying bug fixes have been implemented as well. Definetly a good patch. iCloud is GREAT too!
