OMG, I was dreamt about this last night.... Was wondering when they will release the GM. And, I am not even a fanboy. LOL.
 
Looking forward to getting my hands on the GM and seeing if the RAM management, especially on Safari and Safari Web Content, has been improved.

Both of them ended up using near on 1GB of RAM at one point on DP4, which after a few hours use slowed my iMac down significantly, made animations/transitions extremely juddery at times, etc.

If the GM runs well, I'll buy the Mac App Store release. If it doesn't, I'll stick with a fully updated Snow Leopard at 10.6.8.
 
Still upset that my i1Match software (which is critical for me) won't work and Office 2008 won't install on a clean Lion roll-out. Sigh.
 
Wait, Front Row is not in Lion?? How did I not know this already?

I use Front Row every single day to listen to music from my laptop as I work. It's nice because I can see the display from across the room where my computer is. Why on earth have they decided not to include it?
 
Can only imagine what app store download speeds are going to be like the first couple of days after launch.

Should be good though...looking forward to the upgrade.
 
Anyone checked to see if you can upgrade dp4 to final? Or does it make you do fresh?

This is my question as well. Im' at work right now and can't check the notes, but I'd love it if I could install the GM and not have to worry about software updates and upgrades later.

Either way, I get a free upgrade to Lion since i just bought an iMac, so I figure I may as well install it early ;)

Anyone know?
 
I also love using frontrow it's a nice clean interface that works for me when I'm watching tv in bed. Hope the rest of lion is worth the sacrifice and I'll try to leave apple some feedback as well to try to get them to add it.

they shoud at least make it an optional download thru the app store.

Pretty sure they discontinued Front Row. Maybe a replacement is in the works...some sort of version of what we have in ATV2
 
Do you guys know how long does usually take for the official release after the golden master has been released?

I sepend on cs5 illustrator and photoshop for work. Can someone who uses these check if they are compatible with this release. Ill upgrade on general release but dont want to wait for bug fixes from adobe if you get my drift
 
Looks like it's already being leaked, will likely be available online in some hours .. But I'm sure people will still buy it..
