As yet I'm not aware of any circumstance where Apple has been reasonably accused of catering to techies. They polish for the masses (which is a good thing, imo, because their stuff ends up being better even for geeks). I wouldn't worry too much. They might change the UI, but it will probably just be a matter of adapting to a new look, not a paradigm shift in how you use stuff. You'll be fine.
