Sonar X2 - new installation feedback

Hi All, I just installed Sonar X2 onto my Win7 64-bit PC. That is, X2 and the X2a patch. The installation went quickly and flawlessly. Sonar saw all of my 100-odd plugins and synths. There were no issues with lost plugins or some of the other horrors I've read about in this forum. I opened up a current project that has 60 tracks (MIDI and audio combined)and could play it back - glitch-free. I was expecting to have to fiddle with ASIO settings, and was relieved when this was unecessary. I noticed that the CPU meters(in the control bar) were slightly lower than in X1. This was a welcome sight, as I often max out my pc. I like the new look of the track view. The console is a bit too bright for my liking, but I know how to fix that. The event list, which I use instead of the PRV, is looking jaded and can definitely use a facelift. So, a hassle-free upgrade seems to be possible. I am very happy with this upgrade and feel it was worth the price. I haven't explored every new feature, but so far, so good.

Sonar X2 Producer. Focusrite Saffire 6, Fender Strat, black PC for recording and mixing. That is all.
