re: TRIM support
Umm.... are the people saying TRIM isn't enabled using Apple branded Toshiba SSD drives, or other 3rd. party ones?
I'm wondering because I believe the 2011 Macbook Pros came with a newer OS X built with TRIM enabled, but only with the SSDs that had original Apple firmware on them? If they just moved that patch into public distribution, then no - it won't show TRIM as enabled for other brands/models of SSD drives. That is probably only coming in Lion.

People who use 2011 MacBook Pros:
Do you see any reduction in performance with performing CPU intensive tasks in 10.6.7? Concerned that performance has decreased on my machine, and want to see if anyone is experiencing any reduction also? (5.39 -> 5.07 in CineBench 11.5 is the only numerical indicator I have to hand so far)

I bought a new 2.3 15" yesterday, and was able to easily duplicate the freezing issue. Installed 10.6.7 and have NOT been able to dupe it since. Hooray! Almost took this box back to Apple today.
I'm on a new Macbook Air (13" maxxed out) and the update seems to be causing iTunes to freeze the whole system - clock, mouse, keyboard, etc. It happens about 5-6 seconds after I launch iTunes. I can start a song, and it will continue to play after the system locks up, but otherwise I'm stuck with a hard reset. I tried clearing the preference files in \Users\[me]\Library\Preferences, but that didn't help. I repaired disk permissions before and after the update. Any suggestions?
Video drivers for the Intel 3000 were definitely updated in the 2011 version:
Before 10.6.7
AppleIntelHDGraphicsVADriver 1.6.30.19 ()
AppleIntelHDGraphicsGLDriver 1.6.30.19
After 10.6.7
AppleIntelHDGraphicsVADriver 1.6.32.12 ()
AppleIntelHDGraphicsGLDriver 1.6.32.12
Should be interesting to see the benchmarks before and after now.

Not sure what they updated in mail but this is what you need to do with those 2 UUID numbers -
If the plugin already got moved to ~/Library/Mail/Bundles (Disabled)/ move it back to ~/Library/Mail/Bundles/ (~ refers to your User folder)
Open ~/Library/Mail/Bundles/NAME OF PLUGIN/Contents/Info.plist with the Property List Editor (I prefer PlistEditPro) (to see the contents folder right click on the file and choose show contents)
Insert the two UUIDs under SupportedPluginCompatibilityUUID and save the document
Start the Mail APP and be happy
I'll also update my original post with this information so others will see it.

UUID is in an earlier post...
"Fixes a rare issue in Mac OS X v10.6.5 that could cause user accounts to disappear from the Login window and System Preferences after putting the system to sleep."
Anyone else had this issue (I Did)

Has anyone who may have experienced the USB (AT&T hotspot) iPhone tethering kernel panic notice that this update has made tethering stable?

Still FREEZING!!!!!!!!!!
Terrible! Even this update didn't fix the freezing problems as reported e.g. here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2383288&tstart=90
Can't use my iMac since 10.6.3 Update. Grrrrrr!

After updating to 10.6.7 (i use an MBP 15'' 2010 with i7+Nvidia 330M) i see a performance boost in Starcraft 2, playing in Medium with 10.6.6 i had 40-45fps average and 30-25fps with more than 30 units attacking, now with the same Medium i obtain 60fps average and 40-50fps with units attacking.
Really i see a good boost in graphics with this update, probably i will wait until the 2012 models to upgrade, because the 2011 i see them with problems :S
Anyone who had already saw an increase in graphic performance (games)?

Tell me...why have you NOT taken that machine in to an Apple store? Does sitting behind your keyboard solve any problems? That is not normal and you should have have freezing issues.
Are you sure it's indicative of hardware issues?? On my new 2011 13" 2.3 I've already had 4 kernel panics. That's about how many I've had on my late 2006 MBP over 4.5 years.
:::::EDIT::::: Just found this: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2783320&tstart=0
Seems to be related to USB tethering with or without JB and on 4.2 or 4.3.

And then a new problem will arise in the 2012 model.
Every Mac at one point or another has had some kind of issue. And with all this complaining I haven't had one issue yet though with mine.
That being said... Anything made by man is fallible. Deal with it. Waiting a year isn't going to give you a problem free device. You can't decide that fate.
