The substantial thing that Joyride has going for it is that it
*finally* provides a working suspend/resume. [I think that all of
the netbooks announced so far need more power than XO-1/Joyride.]
[Also, I'm hearing whispers of 'no Rainbow' after Joyride.]
But in regard to "working as designed" -- so far I have noticed the
following regressions [plus others] in Joyride, compared to 8.2.0:
- no mesh
- no video
- incomplete 'sugar-install-bundle'
- in Terminal "page-up" gets overdone
- wireless icons need fixing
- 'Record' and 'Help' don't work (also 'Write')
- 'Measure' hung my session
- microphone light turned on by boot, stays on
- some older Activities work neither in 8.2 nor in Joyride
