If you want your Growl notifications to appear in the Notification Centre this beta program seems to work. http://collect3.com.au/hiss/

I use growl for the odd thing, mainly to see which graphic card I'm currently using.

is it signed for gatekeeper?

No it is not signed. Sorry I should have warned.

Having used the new OS for 2-3 days now on the MBP, It really has been a seamless transition and the laptop is working very well. It may be using a bit more memory (Crucial want £40 to take me up to 8Gb) I'll keep an eye on that.

Agreed - it is a good update. Had problems with Trusteer which required a re-install, and Time Machine. TM wouldn't delete oldest backup to make space. Fortunately, manual backup delete in TM works

I honestly would not use Trusteer at all, its not known for smooth running on Macs or some PC's for that matter.

Running 8GB here Steve and all seems ok although I may update to 16GB while I have the cash for the memory. I did notice my iMac running pretty hot. Quite a few preference pains did not transfer over so I did a clean install via the hidden partition. It has some bugs but I'm hoping 10.8.1 will help there, nothing show stopping so far though..

I've stuck 8Gb in the MBP and the swap files now gone on light usage. Seems to be running pretty well.
