[QUOTE="Filterlab, post: 1288729, member: 31302"] Varying opinions a little. I did my 2008 iMac first, worked perfectly. Boot up: 40 seconds, shut down; immediate. Rosetta applications don't work, but most were unused. I then did my 2010 MacBook Air. Also worked perfectly. Boot up: around 30 seconds, shut down: about 10 seconds. I had some problems with Adobe based applications (Illustrator, Dreamweaver, Photoshop) but they soon cleared. All is perfect. I then updated my wife's 2010 Macbook Pro. Flawless update, boot up is around 30 seconds, shut down is immediate (less than 4 seconds). No problems anywhere although I did run Onyx 2.4 through it as it got a bit glitchy after a couple of weeks. All perfect now. The updated applications are brilliant! The proper scroll direction is genius and makes more sense than I could have ever imagined, and the whole thing runs so smoothly it belies belief. Seriously, it does make me wonder how Apple can keep improving things so well, but they do. Check your applications first and then do it. [/QUOTE]
