I'm running maverick at work and it seems to run fine except for a bug
in chrome flash. It totally hangs the system, despite not being
upgraded or touched. I can only assume its an incompatability of some
sort, firefox works fine with the normal flash plugins (chrome brings
it own plugins).

My home machine has the mbr being over written problem, apparently
changing the grub version fixes this (fresh install uses grub2 rather
than 'grub' which works fine?), however I dont boot windows so I have
never actually implemented that to test it.
