Ok so just downloaded the developer edition - and curious to see how it looks..

Anyone installed it yet?

From what i see it wont work in a VM (unless you do some tweaking ;)) But I dont have the time for that.. so will install it on another partition instead..
 
Works fine on any Intel mac. (I think it has issues with the 2007 iMac). Yeah just install it to another partition. Luckily OS X lets you resize partitions on the fly!

Can you do a dual boot OS X? How do you do that?

What sort of issues? Link? I've got a late 07 iMac (the first of the aluminium ones).
 
Edit: Sorry read wrong, it's the Core Duo iMac which is not supported.

Well basically dual-booting OS X is extremely easy. You create a new partition, install your OS to it. Then you can select your boot partition right in System Preferences -> Startup Disk. Or hold option during boot to see a menu.

Quite different. Too many changes to name. The theme is slightly different, the windows resize from any edge, and lots of tweaks like full-screen mode for apps and re-opening all the windows when you restart your mac.
