UPDATE (blakespot): Also of note--no dual monitor support! The text of this preview seems to indicate that it will not even install on a multiple-monitor Mac. Well, if true, this negates OS X beta's utility in my world. It would also be strange, as MacOS X DP4 does support multiple monitors (even DP3 did, but just barely). Hmmm... I'll definitely be keeping my fingers crossed.
