Well seeing as how this is pretty cool I just wanted to say I saw a couple new things on here. One is that is faster than ever before.. This really shows the power of the mac.. The laptop I’m using is about 2 years older than my 17 MBP that I bought in June of 2009 and man this computer smokes it. I cant wait to install it on my new machine. However there is also another difference.. Not sure if its something that was in other releases but in the stacks they got rid of the name of the previous folder to show an arrow back instead. Also the background also seems to be blurred or frosted to show a cool effect.. Also it looks like they changed the quicktime UI as well a little bit. What do
