Have you installed it?

How is it on the intel-based CPUs with the basic GMA950 graphics?

I've read it's been slimmed down for the basic install, so it would be interesting to compare for general speed, especially for the low-end MacBooks.

Thanks. I've been waiting for this one for some time.
It is working fine on my recent model iMac. Espose' is really cool. Had to reselect my photos in iPhotos so the Photo Shuffle screen saver work and may have to resync my contacts but that is no big deal. What i especially like is that you simply put in the disk in and after entering your password, you can walk away and come back in an hour and it is all done - no sitting in front of the screen for x hours. If you have a wireless mouse you have to hang around long enough to resync that.
