I can't say whether or not I like 'em yet though...

Not totally. If Guinea Pigs, i.e. me, have major problems with it, this is a very good place to tell others to not update to 10.2.3 until the problem is fixed.
And at 50MB, it's a pretty big update anyways.
Otherwise you're right. This story should be rolled back into "weekly updates" or something...

Personally, I prefer the new sunken-look ones, but it's fair if you like the previous...
Talking to a few other mac people I know, they're acting like Apple is on crack for ruining a GUI by changing those few little buttons. The response seemed more volatile than when flowerpower imacs appeared
We scare me sometimes.

10.2.3 breaks WindowManger's VBL sync on my TiBook (Score:2, Interesting)
It looks to me like they turned off the WindowManager's sync-to-VBL for all window flushes. This is different than every previous version of OS X.
Now, this isn't a critical bug, nobody is losing any data from it. But it LOOKS HORRIBLE. I know I am going to get a headache from this in the next few days. And forget about developing anything with smooth animation (in a window. Full screen contexts still appear to work.) I wish I could downgrade to 10.2.2.
I'd run over to the Apple Store to see if it's just my machine or what, but being located inside the mall I'm hesitant to go anywhere near it until after New Year's.
