Gianluca, I have been using Mathematica 3.0.1 and Mac OS 8.5 for a few weeks now, and haven't had any _serious_ problems. The Appearance extension problem is gone, or at least far more benign. I have experienced some type-rendering strangeness, but that may be related to some known issues with Adobe Type Manager 4.0.2. (I stubbornly stick to Postscript fonts.) Also, the annoyance of delayed evaluation with AppleTalk active still remains. Thanks for bringing up this topic.
