is installed by default. We would appreciate reports of whether
your printer is supported, how well it works with CUPS, and how
easy or difficult the CUPS configuration is generally.

you must select it explicitly under Advanced Mode installation
(it is located under "System Extensions" -> "User Interface
Enhancements" -> "High-resolution desktop icons"). Again, we
would very much appreciate your evaluation of this feature.
- The new File Open Container. We are interested to know what you
think of this replacement for the common file open/save dialog,
and how well it works for you.
- The new split view for desktop folders.
