Keep in mind.. Its a beta. As such, there are problems.

The biggest one, apparently it makes you redownload some games. Nobody knows why, but its all over the Steam forum. Happened to me, so now i get to redownload MW2 on my $h!ttastic internet

It gets worse (for MW2 players) apparently.. Instead of letting it download completely, I just installed from the disc to save tons of time. Ooops.. STILL doesnt work. Looks like I HAVE to download the entire game.
 
mine isn't working quite right. the large game icons don't display and i can't browse the steam store or community page/friends list. it just sits there then gives a "testshell-error:"
 
I have to re-download Modern Warfare 2 as well. I thought it locked up my computer as well when I clicked "Games List". Quite the beta.
 
No issues. I must say. I love this UI update. It's great. Also while I don't use the browser all the time. Now that it's using webkit, it flys on loading pages!

It's slick. Love how everything is more presentable! Now I really want to unlock achievements!

Also feels lighter? I love it.
 
I hated it at first, then I learned the menus and now I love it.

Only thing I want is a download progress bar on the games tab ontop of the game icons.
