Im fully expecting loads of apps I rely on to break, and the whole OS to be unstable until 10.7.1 is released, but then its all part of the fun isn't it :-)
I know i will have to finally say goodbye to my scanner and its powerpc scanning drivers/software, but thats the only legacy hardware I have been clinging onto. I can see the release day whenever it is being a big old day of downloading the software, then the developer tools, re-doing adobe etc. Ive already taken a full carbon copy cloner backup in preparedness.
