Freezes or disconnects? This happens to me also where my Magic Mouse disconnects but reconnects after I power down the mouse sometimes happens to the keyboard but not as much as the mouse seems like a Bluetooth issue with Mavericks.
Pfft. Forget 10.9.4 beta. 10.10 is coming on Monday
Are you sure the first beta is coming on Monday for 10.10?
Perhaps an update for a new upcoming product, surely 10.9.3 was for all existing products and immediately launching ones at WWDC... New retina 12 inch mba?
I think you meant niggles. A nigglet is something completely different: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=nigglet
10.9.4 must be for ARM compatibility for the upcoming 12" ARM rMBA that's going to be announced Monday

If you want less bugs, you should welcome this update instead of wanting a next major version that will probably add more bugs.
I think they may have learnt a lot from iOS 7 and the overhaul won't be anywhere near as drastic.
A flatter UI without sacrificing productivity would be most welcome from me. I don't want change for the sake of it with reduced functionality.

Not gonna lie, miss going up to .x.8 or even .x.11.. it just feels so.... I dunno. Bleh.
I don't feel like I got my money's worth. I paid zero American Dollars for this OS, I expect updates till at least 10.9.5.

I'm not sure... I think you may have.... I don't think you followed Apple's train of thought on that one...
I think its safe to say that Mavericks will reach 10.9.5 before OS X 10.10 is released.
I just hope 10.9.4 fixes the issues with no wifi when I wake up my rMBP & I'm still having issues with mail.
Sorry, you're correct. Having a senior moment I guess. I'm not really familiar with those types of slang terms. I guess I'm too old.
Magic Mouse doesn't work with Mavericks
I hope they solved the Magic Mouse problems with Mavericks: The cursor doesn't move any more.

Yep, and more ....
IMO, 10.9.3 was one of the worst OS X updates in recent memory with all of the problems it caused.
Not only did it break support for more than 2 displays on new Mac Pro systems (and as I understand it, also for 15" Retina Macbook Pro 2013 users who tried to add 2 or 3 external displays while using the built in LCD), but it also caused rendering issues in Adobe Premiere Pro for nMP users and broke Blackmagic DaVinci Resolve.
One of my co-workers claims 10.9.3 broke some NFS connectivity on his system (though I can't say I've seen that reported elsewhere), and another co-worker claims his Macbook Pro's wi-fi stopped working properly ever since the 10.9.3 update. (That machine has been sitting at the Apple store in Chicago for 2 weeks now and while they can easily duplicate the problem, they can't explain it. I believe the wireless card has already been swapped out.) Apparently, it works for a little while and just suddenly drops out, requiring a reboot to get it going again.

Since 10.9.3 final realease I can confirm I'm having issues never experienced before on my rMBP 15" late 2013.
After waking from sleep, wifi is still connected but the actual internet connection drops and restarts randomly. Manually turning wifi off and on again fixes this until the next sleep.
Odd thing is... this didn't happen on any 10.9.3 beta...
Now I'm gonna wait for a while before installing any new updates.
LOL! You mean ready to show off at WWDC not ready for the public yet no way I would download if it was available now with who knows what kind of glitches
If OS X 10.10 (whatever it is called) is anything like mavericks beta 1, I would download it in an instant, because it had almost no glitches (not in my experience anyway)
Please fix the slow Finder
Watching a Finder window in column view slowly display its contents properly makes my SSD seem like a 4200 rpm HDD

hmmm, i dont agree with you on that ... iOS 6.1.X was incredibly stable and was the final product of all previous versions.
After installing this and restarting, I was asked to sign-in to iCloud again (just like you do when you install the OS). Thought it was a bit strange.
progress and having good taste are completely different things. things can be new and look terrible at the same time. if you update something just for the sake of it WITHOUT addressing a NEED or weakness in the old design you are more likely to come up with sometime worse, especially if you leave software design/UI to someone who is used to working in a shop with physical objects and not human interface norms set by decades of research and conventionYes, down with progress! Full STOP I say!
