I installed the update and had no problems. I'm glad they fixed the Finder file transfer bug. It was a major faux pas. That said, I know of nobody that moves files from one disk to another via the Finder. Everyone just copies the files and deletes the original data. Seemed to me to be much ado about nothing.
Of the new fixes, I'm happy to see that the status bar has returned during permissions repair even if the time estimates are wildly inaccurate. Permissions repairs were too slow under Panther, took a huge leap forward in Tiger and now are back to being slow again.
The main stick in my craw after upgrading to 10.5 and even after the 10.5.1 update is that my MacBook Pro will not shutdown or restart unless I first logout. If I try to shutdown or restart while logged in, the machine hangs at the Desktop after the Finder and Dock quit. I'm forced to do a power shutdown. Several people I work with have had the same problem and while some people don't think it's a big deal, it's definitely a pain in the ass. I rarely shutdown my machine...I usually just put it to sleep. But installing any software that requires a reboot forces me to hold down the power button to shut off the machine...you don't get the option to logoff first.
