Anyone rocking Lion yet?

Yep, been using it since Wednesday. Not hugely different from Snow Leopard. I immediately flipped the inverted scrolling to the old way. If you're rocking a touchpad the new gestures are neat, take a bit of memorizing though. The launchpad iPad lookalike app icon list is quite nice although I haven't used it (I'm a quiksilver task launcher fan). The new scroll-bar chrome is nice (well, the scroll bars should be invisible until activated but this is only present in native Apple apps so far, developers have to catch up on making them dissappear). The full screen app capability is nice too (again, 3rd party apps are gonna have to update to take advantage of this again). Can't say I notice much in way of performance, I don't notice any boost, system seems to run like Snow Leopard.

What sort of machine are you running it on? Does it need lots of power?

 

[Theseus Mock]

Running it on a current gen MacBook Pro but the Core Duo chipset is not supported, this means only Core 2 Duo's and the i3/i5/i7's get to upgrade.

As usual, I'm going to hold off

Pro Tools is unsupported, as are some other audio apps and plugins.

reaper users probably best staying put for the meantime.

i'll hold off for a while. Updated to 10.6.8 and it fucked up my post script print driver so i'd say there'll be some shit with 10.7.
