First of all...

It's not out yet (unless you have access to the Beta versions)... and secondly, when it is, this may be the most usless poll ever

Recent builds of Jaguar are very impressive, but it's still a beta. Some features don't work yet, and there are some significant bugs.
It all comes down to personal preferences. If a program/feature that you use all the time does not work in Jaguar, then it would be a waste of time for you to try and run it.

1) It rocks.
2) It's not legal to get builds of Jaguar if you're not a premier/select member of ADC.

Just a few things that occurred to me after another session on 6C75:

- Even with a mere 8MB ATI Rage 128 card, Quartz Extreme looks gorgeous!.

- The "Do you want to replace it?" dialog box has the older/newer info back again.

- I had forgotten how handy spring-loaded folders are.

I voted "No" just for the extreme hell of it.

I don't think anyone should get Jaguar when it comes out. It will erase your hard drive and render you impotent as well.

The new "Quartz Extreme" actually implements photon torpedoes, and will burn your retinas causing blindness.

The keyboard doesn't work anymore.

Nothing but iTunes will run on it, however, iTunes won't play music. Only religious speeches and propaganda.

I recommend staying FAR away from Jaguar when it's released. I think it is Apple's master plan to take over the world. For example, yesterday, and Apple employee stole my keys and refused to give them back to me. They're all a part of his master plan, he says, to use my keys to make a weapon of mass destuction, sell it to the Taliban and then club baby seals and use their meat for chum when he goes fishing.

Damn bastards.
