So far, nothing's gone horribly wrong either...but I won't be plugging in my Time Machine disk for a bit, better safe than sorry.

It's much faster launching apps, and the scrolling is a bit smoother, but that's all I've noticed as of yet. Haven't unplugged so I can't say anything about battery life. Seems like more of a feature-heavy release with some (very nice) underhood tweaks as opposed to a full engine-swap like Snow Leopard.
