Thankfully I only installed it on my mini so far. It broke a bunch of apps which are slowly releasing patches and getting updated. My mp3 squeezecenter server software broke rendering my stereo impotent

I dread having to go back and reinstall 64 bit ruby, rails, mysql, imagemagick and the like. I may hold off on upgrading the macbook for a few weeks while I see if there are any other kinks with the desktop.

yeah kinda surprising how much I now realize I was using those
utilities. Got used to glancing up at the menu bar to see how fast the
network was going, what temperature the CPUs were, etc.

Both iStat Menus and MenuMeters will be available soon. Waiting anxiously!

Maybe it's just the placebo effect, but it feels like things are faster after a clean install. I made time for one of those, and so far I think it's been worth it.

I'm loving it, too — it's much zippier than I anticipated.

I got the upgrade for £7.95 thanks to the Up To Date program
