I have installed it on 5 computers and it is a long process, but painless. On my main computer my memory score went from 5.5 to 5.6, everything else was maxed (5.9) before RC1. I haven't checked the other ones yet. Looks hopeful at this point.

I guess you already know to uninstall previous version, which is in itself a long process.
