Sweet deal :)

I currently just have one account, my personal one, to use ZFS.  Then  
I just have another local admin account that uses HFS+ that I don't  
really use for anything except occasional testing.  In my current  
setup, I created a pool, and I have 2 filesystems in it, one of which  
is my home directory.  Then I just created my  account and pointed it  
to use that directory for my home dir.
I haven't experimented with File Vault yet at all, so feel free to  
have at it.  Hopefully when we get encryption for ZFS then we'll be  
able to just offer it natively that way.
