The only thing I don't like about DW is having to buy a new bootable CD (not full price, mind you) when you get a new system that isn't supported by the old DW boot CD. You could argue that that isn't really their fault as it's the system on the boot CD that is at fault, but I think they ought to provide a freely downloadable utility that will build a new bootable CD using your existing copy of DiskWarrior and your existing system, which does boot your new computer. Similar to the freeware/donationware program BootCD, but optimized. Which brings up the point that you can use BootCD for this. The problem with BootCD is that the system it produces on the CD takes a *long* time to boot from. However, it does work, plus you can put other programs on there at the same time such as Disk Utility (actually BootCD puts that on their by default anyway) and it boots you into a real (if incomplete) system, not just into DiskWarrior. That can be handy sometimes.
