Thanks, informative link, Wayne. :thumbsup:


I think I'll wait a few days, read through some of the 1600+ comments about El Capitan on one of the links
in the thread you posted and see if Dave is happy or not.

So far, so good. El Capitan seems to fix some odd underlying issues the same way iOS 9.1 does.

Yup, all seems fine! A few little tweaks, new functions but that's about it.

I've noticed apps open faster but shutting down takes a bit longer.

Upgraded my iMacs but not my primary MacBook Pro (I use the MBP 99% of the time), the iMacs mostly only run my security and automation services at home). It seems to be noticeably faster on the iMacs.

Worked great , just make sure if you're using kaspersky you turn it off first as it will try to rescan all your email when mail re-syncs. KILLS everything!

Still waiting to upgrade, too many unhappy reviews posted in the App Store.

Downloaded, ran out of disk space so canceled installation, cleared space, now can't find installer/upgrade (but downloaded so I guess still eating disk space).

Don't know what else is broken.

Apparently, the update works fine, until it doesn't. :raised:

worked fine for me...
office 2016 on the other hand keeps crashing... But it did that even before the upgrade.

My new rMBP came with it, but I have not upgraded my other machines yet. Need to since some core apps have changed.

Bump, to see how this OS is treating folks at this point.

Thoughts?
