Thanks for sharing. I've been putting off Yosemite because of all the
'slow' reports. I run two external monitors so this would have surely
bitten me. You may just have persuaded me to take the plunge. Are they up
to 10.10.2 yet? I use to wait until .1 was out, but these days that seems
to just address the initial deluge of complaints. .2 seems to be the first
real sorted version of OS X.
