I just grabbed the 10.0.2 update from Software Update. Lots of things seem to be running somewhat faster. App launch times seem to be down by a few "bounces" of their icon. As well, the Finder is much quicker. From the change in my hard drive noises it seems to be caching information instead of grinding on each folder open. The trick to getting 9.1 and X talking, at least for me, was to make sure that File Sharing was enabled over TCP/IP. The checkbox on the 9.1 file sharing panel seems to be disabled by default -- and OS X doesn't do AppleTalk for anything but printers now.

  I'm glad you brought up the 10.0.2 build. Software Update also had a new version of iTunes and Epson Printer Drivers. Everything went smoothly -- just hit the button and go grab a Coke. The update application handles the download and the installation. You do have to restart afterward, however.
  
  I also give this update a thumbs up in terms of performance improvement, so I encourage folks to go get it.
