I happened to be online the same day that Apple released it, so I jumped in, downloaded it and installed it on my Macs. Total nightmare ever since. I have just today finally finished the process of booting into OS 9 (lucky me), dumping the OS X system folder entirely, formatting my hard drive and running a clean reinstall of Jaguar. Then I've had to go through all the updates to take me back to lovely 10.2.6, which is where I'm sticking for now. Back up your Mac NOW!
