Only slightly by giving it a very small 3D effect which looks cool...

I'm running 7.5.3 with SD 1.1 just fine. The last beta of 7.5.3 I was
using didn't like SD but Apple seem to have fixed that now. I'd keep it
running until you need otherwise.

Hmmmm. I'm running 7.5.3 with ARA Server 2.0.1 and have had no problems at
all. In fact the new SerialDMA driver seems to have increased performance
quite a bit (especially with Netscape 2.0, but that could just be
OpenTransport 1.1).

Overall I have found the update to be must!
