Unlike most people, upgrading was not an easy process for me and my
iMactel. I twice installed on top of 10.5.8 and my Mac did not run well.
I ended up installing on  partitions on a virgin FWHD and using
Migration Assistant several times before I decided on only migrating
Users and Files. That transferred some Apple apps and I reinstalled 10
or 12 others. If hadn't used SD clones and that FWHD, I'd still be on
10.5.8. Most people had a much easier time than I did.

CS3 Dreamweaver seems okay, but not the previous version. GoLive 6.0
also seems to be okay.

The casual user may not notice much of a change with SL. Seems a little
snappier to me.
