I don't think there's much room for people to complain here. If this is a service pack, then they dove quite a bit deeper than normal and the price is well worth it. Like you said, especially if you get this amount of performance increase through software alone. Brian, a really great review. I don’t think there’s much room for people to complain here.

I've got about 10 main stream apps that don't work. Latest video codecs that continue to claim they can't find Quicktime and won't launch from the finder. Have about 3 friends that had serious upgrade issues and one upgrade that failed and his end result is an unbootable mac. He has had to erase entire hard drive and reinstall Leopard, and is restoring everything with time machine. He isn't going to try again until snow leopard has had some time out in the wild. I am trying to decide whether to downgrade myself to get back the apps I use until upgrades are released. At Mac Store I was lead to believe that this should be fairly flawless and everything should work. Where are all the people bitching about this upgrade like they bitched about Vista?? I had fewer issues upgrading to Vista. I preformed a clean install. I’ve got about 10 main stream apps that don’t work.

However it has been a living nightmare for me on my 2008 Mac Pro. I have 6 drives inside the Mac Pro and I have two raid sets. Any time I tried to access anything for the raid sets I would get Kernel Panics. I had to slowly pull Terrabytes worth of data folder by folder onto external drives to kill the pre Snow Leopard raid sets. It is being talked about on the Apple Disccusion groups but no answer from Apple yet on the matter. I had no issues on my 17″ Unibody MacBook Pro.
