I might just do that, in Dublin.

I was in the Apple Store Liverpool UK today! Had to tell them their GPS App is pure rubbish! Nothing is where the map thinks things are.

So the cute guy took outside to the sidewalk and showed me the turn by turn directions.

Let me know your feedback, I **just** got my brand spanking new MacBook Pro and will be doing the upgrade immediately, and will also be trying to use OS X as my main OS too

dont forget if you hate the new scrolling feature just change it from natural scrolling in the mouse settings/trackpad

i like it only when using the laptop track pad but sadly if you use your mouse there is no way to say when i use mouse use the normal scrolling

i tried this out in the betas and in photoshop it drove me bonkers

im finding after upgrading there is sluggish issues ;( so I've re-downloaded the install package on another mac and will burn a mac os x lion DVD
