Hmm... good I just got a refrub'ed 300 iBook and I think it's real neat

Yeh, Apple and Norton have mentioned this officially. It's not
compatible with OS X and can lead to a complete corruption and general
killing off of the OS X system. It's got something to do with the new
file system structure in OS X. I'm not entirely sure why it does this
but their is something about unix files it don't like, possibly missing
resource fork and things like that

I'm on ADC and I haven't got it yet (but then I'm not eligible for OS
version seeding). I suspect I'll get it when it is released but you
guys'll just have to wait like good boys and girls :)
