New, but switched to classic and still no problems.
I am getting used to some of the new features but I am not a massive fan of the horizontal scrollbar disappearing. When you want the bottom item in a list, you quite often have to wait a second for it to disappear because it is covering the bottom item in a finder window.
Will be nice once chrome implements the standard 2 finger back and forwards along with the fading scroll bars.

Yeah, I saw a post on googles channel mentioning that the night-lies have got that in them but I am trying to stick on the stock chrome as I have had issues with other bits of chrome running the canaries.
They tend to be quite slow to implement some features in the public release which is fair enough I guess. (slow by googles standards at any rate!)

Can anyone confirm if their Logitech MX Revolution works fine since upgrading to Lion? I'm having some issues with mine whereby the back/forward thumb buttons aren't working as expected.
They essentially double click and go back two page than just the one.
I've updated to the latest LCC which was released the same day as Lion.
Anyone else?

Download Better Touch Tool and reconfigure them how you prefer.
Hmm went to the pub this evening and put the Macbook to sleep. Just got home to find it in a vegetative state, with the screen blacklight on, but the screen itself showing nothing. Completely unresponsive. Had to hard reboot. Console doesn't give many clues either. If this were a PC I'd suspect a hardware level conflict with that kind of behaviour. But it's not a PC, and this kind of thing shouldn't happen. Not happy 
This might be a 10.x.0 OS, but that doesn't mean it's a public beta, or anything close to one. It should actually be usable. I was using SL since 10.6.0 and it was always perfect for me.

Is it just me or has going to Lion made Windows 7 look quite old fashioned? everything seems so sleek, modern, well thought out and beautifully usable. To some degree I felt Windows 7 was somewhat on par with Snow Leopard but there was still things I liked in Snow Leopard that was better than Windows 7 that had the edge on it. Now Lion feels like a massive jump. Everything is so fluid and streamlined.
Yet I'm sitting here with another machine which is a G5 with Leopard, it really feels dated in looks but yet sometimes I think it still has the edge on Windows 7 for a UI.
Mail in Lion feels like I'm reading a fancy newspaper. It feels so modern. Though it made me think of something from Press Gang. I love it.

Cheers guys.
I tried it again and it simply took a long time, around an hour! to download the extra drivers, wasn't expecting it to be that slow

I think you may be suffering from Rose-tinted glasses. 10.6.0 was far from perfect.
Anyway, is your MacBook a white one and did you do a fresh install or upgrade? If it was an upgrade it could be some left over software. Mind you Apple have released updates in the past that have caused sleep issues.
I'm sure such things will be fixed in 10.7.1 and 10.7 really isn't a beta. It's been the best version of OS X for me so far. Even the upgrade that I did on my wife's MacBook went supper smoothly.
Anyone else having problems with Mail in full screen mode after coming back from sleep? Every time I bring my MBP out of sleep I can't use the mouse to click *anything* in Mail. Keyboard shortcuts (and up/down, etc) still work but I need to take it out of full screen mode and put it back again to get the mouse to work on it!

Yeah same here, the mouse refuses to click new mail after coming out of sleep.
Right I really like most the appearance updates and the universal use of the gestures is nice BUTTT how do I get firefox to do 3 fingers forward/back and 3 fingers to the top/bottom like it used to???? This was the best feature!
Worse still it looks like im rolling back to SL as FM11 appears not to work at all

I can't say I ever noticed anything wrong with it personally.
It's a late 2009 MBP. It was an update. I'm seriously considering the clean install atm, but it's a lot of work with no clear gain.
Has anyone else reported improved performance after a clean install?
