Yep. I was distinctly underwhelmed by PB and 10.0.x, but my work 
machine has been running 10.1 for quite awhile. I'd use it more 
frequently on my laptop, but haven't been able to get my Farallon 
802.11b to work (there are a couple of things I'm going to try this 
weekend), and I'm unwilling to give up internet connectivity at home 
or to drag cables around with me.
