I gave it a fair shake initially, but it turned out to have too many little quirky issues (bugs) that I couldn't be bothered to waste more time with (on my primary development machine). I was constantly locking up Compiz with it enabled and getting weird graphical artifacts. Once I booted back into classic mode, everything worked perfectly (Compiz is enabled still).
I imagine some of the recent updates resolved issues, so I might try it again. It felt a lot snappier as a UI and some of the design choices are nice.
I felt it handled windows that popped up poorly, though - a number of times I would launch something, get annoyed that it hadn't shown up, and then realize it was launched, just hiding on the "dock". I never did get to the bottom of why that was happening.
Over all, Natty fixed some issues with my Dell M4500 laptop, particularly in the docking station, so it was a good upgrade for me.
