Hi there I am having no trouble with the sluggishness people are talking about, except when waking up the computer VO is a little slow to start talking. That's not a big deal because once it does, it works fine. Finder, oh happy, happy, works better than under Mavericks. Under Mavericks, Finder was starting to drive me crazy because I couldn't type the letters of something I wanted a lot of times and get the file. I had been using Spotlight to call up apps, but now I find the dock more convenient; using Spotlight was just the way I started out on the Mac. Upgrading was worth it to fix Finder for me. I think Finder was a problem for me under Mavericks because I have so many files on my computer.
I don't know if this is important, but I had my memory upgraded on my Mac to 8 gigabytes. I have said this before, and I am wondering if those who have computers with 4 have more problems. When my friend bought her Mac about three weeks ago, it had 8. I think it may have been worth the $81 I spent to have my computer's memory upgraded.
