    El Capitan

    So who has jumped the gun and installed the developer preview of Mac's latest operating system, El Capitan?

    Any thoughts?

    Busy downloading the 6 GB file right now...

    Can't say yet as I am still downloading it - about halfway now.

    I will give my first impressions once I have it up and running later today.

    I must say I hadn't heard of it yet until you mentioned it - I know the last time Yosemite popped up and I downloaded it

    Downloaded and installed (the actual installation was a little less than an hour).

    So far, I don't see anything jump out at me, except that if I wiggle my mouse pad, the cursor momentarily magnifies itself so that I can see where my cursor is on the screen.

    One thing that is obvious is that the system is running a lot smoother and faster, although it was not really a problem before anyway.

    All my apps seem to be running fine.

    I think there's a lot of under-the-hood improvements, rather than visual changes, in this OS.

    If it was me, I would go for it, but then again I'm an early adopter by nature and I'm prepared to take the risks associated with running beta software.
