For those that are still not sure, taken from their Retail Disc.

Unless Appleinsider are doing the warez thing too, that is.
But yeah, I do believe 581 is retail/final, and I have thought so since the (scene) release.

I live in asia and they've just started selling the discs. Build number is 9A581 definitely... it's really fast.

I recommend getting rid of quicksilver or disabling it from auto startup on login as it severely kills bootup time.

DVD is currently spinning in my friend's powerbook, will post disc size when he's done...

Kexts for the nVidia 8600M in 3rd gen MBPs aren't really updated I reckon, still getting horrible frame rates in a lot of 3D intensive apps... a letdown, really.

But otherwise the increase in application performance, especially on first run is really noticeable (same with launching apps using spotlight, I've gotten rid of QS).

Also remember get rid of Tinkertool/Onyx/whatever or restore prefs to defaults before attempting to upgrade.

I went with "Archive and Install" and things went without a problem. Big thumbs up in general.

Quicksilver could increase my boot time by 15 minutes and I'd still use it.

If you're using QS just for launching apps then consider getting rid of it, spotlight in leopard is system level and just as, or if not faster.

The size of the dvd is 7.11gb
