Yes! Good to hear
Looks like Apple made sure to improve the speed of Safari in many different ways. I officially can't wait until Lion releases now. Thanks for the reply mrapplegate.

No problem. They still have a lot of work to do, but gifs play well

So what have you found that's wrong with Safari in Lion?
Oh sorry, I meant the OS in general still needs some work. Safari in DP4 works well for me actually. Some have had issues with gestures, but it is an improvement since DP3.
Yeah but look at Safari: press the green button and what happens? The window goes tiny and off-screen in the bottom left corner. And I know this isn't a bug on my system as I have been able to reproduce it on a Tiger machine as well as on another Snow Leopard machine. And I'v never seen it work in Safari! Press it again and the window becomes tall and thinner than it was originally, and you have to manually reposition and re-resize the window to get it right again.
Apple doesn't even pay attention to this, and if even they don't care, they should at least remove the button altogether as all it does it waste pixels and cause people to accidentally click it and screw up their window configuration. And that would free up some space, which would be a perfect place for the Full Screen button (if you ask me it could still be green with a + sign in it, instead of two arrows).
I'm not sure how new this is for Lion but I just got the MacBook Pro 2.1 EFI update in software update running Lion.
Yes. That's the one. I haven't had it show up in software update while running Lion until just now though and trying to install it previously by downloading it from Apple's website would state it's incompatible.
I noticed this! I thought it was a bug, I've never come across this on either Leopard or Snow Leopard, it's got to be a bug. I don't think Apple should get rid of the green button by the way, I still am in favour of them using it for full screen.
Instead, Apple is "encouraging" dev's to keep app support data organized like it is in iOS, and they said in about 6 months after ship date it will be required that this implemented in all App Store submissions. When this is done, then Launchpad will act as the uninstaller we all hoped and dreamed for for so many years.
This was addressed in the State of the Union address at WWDC this year.
Apple has removed support for their USB External Modem in Lion DP4, it was working in previous versions.
If you have a file that doesn't have an associated program to open it (for example .rar), pressing right mouse button on it and choosing app store takes you right to apps that will open it! even free ones! very cool.
ive not read the entire thread, but has anybody had any luck getting DP4 to install/upgrade using an iMac 2011 machine (12,1 or 12,2) + latest vmware?!
i have been trying for days, and there is no possible way from what i can see. ideas?

1) If you're going to ask a question, do it in the appropriate thread. This definitely isn't it. You probably chose it out of laziness since it's a sticky with lots of activity, hoping somebody would answer.
2) Write your questions better. I think you're asking about two totally different things: Installing DP4, and then installing VMWare on it once it's done. Writing "+ vmware" could also mean you're trying to install DP4 onto VMware. Again, don't be lazy...
[maybe this has already been replied to since it was originally posted in feb and i haven't made it all the way through the thread yet... but
]photoshop kinda messed people up on this..
the real way is ⌘D for don't save.. esc for cancel ..return for accept (allow,save,save as..., etc)
(but it appears for the most part, none of this will be necessary in lion with apps tapping in to versioning/autosave)
I find this a regression. I often pinch to make icons bigger, especially photos. Great feature that is now gone.
in SL
system prefs-> trackpad-> two fingers-> pinch open & close
probably the same pref available in lion.
jeh, because i havent been subscribed to this thread since the 27th of feb and havent contributed my fair amount to the forums already.. you are not a moderator, you have no right to tell me what to do.
now, from replying to me like that, you have created negativity in this thread and the flow on effects wont be good. but anyway i guess you dont care about that, so i will rephrase.
i am attempting to install DP4 into a virtual machine using vmware 3.1.3 and am having no luck - if anybody has had any success doing so on an imac 12,1 or 12,2, please let me know

Yeah, the n00b obviously doesn't know who you are
I'm not positive, but doesn't VMware have to be updated to support a new OS?
HAHA! not sure if i should be offended or notYeah, the n00b obviously doesn't know who you are
not that im aware of, i have about 15 other virtual machines with many OSs, they all work fine. its just lion.

Try This
Edit: oh, and I can confirm it works in Vmware Fusion 3.1.3

please start your own thread, this isn't the place to ask that question.
Yea I was seriously asking this coz I know very little about specs so I wanted help and thanks to you I'll go with the one you said
Peace and thanks to all.
Don't let chickenhawk get you down. Your question is legit.
