I'm going to have to disagree with you, Safari and iTunes were hideous with UIs that took up far too much space. The new UI is much better.

Nope, the volume feedback sound is defaulted to off.
Got a tip for us?

Yes, been running Public Preview 1 on a Mac Book Pro 17 2011 with a 512GB Crucial SSD with no real issues apart from some 3d party software not functioning.
Installing Public Preview 2 right now.
this awesome to hear, that 3D gaming has improved!
can you or anyone back that up with some benchmarks or frame rate tests? I am not doubting just would be really happy to see some hard data
As an OS running most things it is fine, but it would all depend what software you use and whether or not they are currently compatible and working with the Public Beta.
I'm using it on my main portable, though do have an iMac to fall back to. Also did a full back up so can do a full restore should I have any major issues.
They don't seem to like the UK as I receive the same error
All good for me now. All has downloaded fine, just required some persistence!
So anyone who doesn't like this...or God forbid, criticizes Jony Ive is a troll?
Comparing Safari to Safari...it's still ugly! What a shocker!
Lag in launchpad
I am still having lag in the Launchpad, and when I unfold the applications folder from my dock, it's absolutely unbearable.
Does anyone else have this problem aswell?

Nevermind, had to delete the first Yosemite Public Beta out of the /Applications folder. App Store will download it without the 2 which results in a naming conflict.
Dragon Dictate 4
Well Apple must have made a number of amendments to the sound/microphone processing in this version as Dragon Dictate 4 that wasn't working in Public Preview 1 is now working in Public Preview 2.
That was about the only one item that wouldn't even start under preview 1 as it crashed on opening.

It depends if you are using dark mode or not. Mine are white.

Not a problem for me, just did a restart to check and it took 14 seconds from clicking restart to it being back at the Choose User screen.
Also using an SSD Crucial M5 512GB.
Hmm... Is there a way to redownload PB2? I just want to make sure every file was downloaded and installed properly....
Can I also confirm that they've changed the feedback sound as well? Seems sad to change a sound which is so iconic to Mac.
Although I agree the sound was iconic, I really prefer the more subdued tone of the new sound. I always found the older sound to be a little too strong and distracting when playing over audio content.
Tricky question. Depends on what you do with your daily driver. If you put food on the table with it, I would not recommend. If you just use it for personal stuff, like browsing, documents, photos, etc. it's more than likely okay.
I run Yosemite (Dev build) on a separate partition, and it has gotten pretty stable for me. I'm not planning on replacing my main partition until public release, however, because I have been moving from late dev builds to GM releases for the last three OS updates, and I want to do a clean wipe of my machine this time.
