Upgrades went fine on 4 machines (32 and 64 bit).

My SG33G5 (latest 3.8 upgrade) running and testing some of the tools I've put together overtime.

Sorry for seeming stupid and preferring Linux - I just don't know any better.

Did the upgrade on my Thinkpad X220 today. The whole operation (install updates (for 3.6), reboot, install upgrade, check for updates) took all of about 10-15 minutes. I already had TLP installed (highly recommended for Thinkpad users!) and Lite Tweaks recognized that.

Seamless on 3 machines.  Just followed upgrade guidelines.  One was from ll3.4 > ll3.8.
