Is it such a big deal?
You only have to do it once, it stays enabled even after updating to the latest beta, mine already survived 2 beta updates.
It is a big deal when the final release arrives. There will be no easy "sudo nvram boot-args="rootless=0"" command since they're removing nvram boot-args (they said so during a developer keynote). You will have to reboot, hold Cmd+R to enter the Recovery Partition, go to the Utilities menu, Security Configuration, disable rootless, reboot to the full OS, run trimforce, reboot to the recovery partition, re-enable rootless, etc etc... Some people don't even have recovery partitions (it's not created by the installer on Core Storage or RAIDs). So yeah it's a big deal.
If you are running the public beta and your rootless is enabled, then please try "sudo trimforce disable". If it's still broken, it will just say that it cannot delete /System/Library/Extensions/AppleDataSetManagement.kext.

Smart people will, many people won't. They'll soon be on forums and help sites across the internet desperately asking for help retrieving their supposedly important files that they neglected to back up. Happens constantly, and it really grinds my gears.
There's a certain level of stupidity, up of which I will not put.
It's off by default. Check the keyboard section in settings. I think it's called character preview.
So tempted to get El Capitan on this machine. There are so many bugs fixed (or just design failures) that are annoying me for so long. But I promised myself to wait for the *.1 updates each this time (a lesson that previous experiences taught me).
Ios9......tell me the f*cking wifi is fixed. I'm eligible for upgrade when the "s" phones are released but if the ***** issues that never got fixed in ios8 aren't fixed I'm heading out. QC has been terrible.
Tip for people waiting to load the page for iOS9; you have to load the page on your iOS device.
BTW for those who report that the choice to 'hide' Connect in Music and replace it with Playlists is gone in iOS 9...not on my 6+. Maybe it's because that's how I had it set when I did the update. Regardless, post update in the Music app I see Playlists, not Connect.
Windows 8.1 with the latest iTunes does no have the option to "control click" (as per Mac Instructions under preferences>Devices) to Archive my backup. I can't see ANY option to Archive my backup. Is this not necessary via Windows or am I missing something?
UPDATE: after two hard resets, iOS 9 PB1 is running smoother. Less hangups and smoother graphics. Scaling is back to normal as well.
