They've now released a 'snapshot' 10.51. I have been having trouble 
with the program simply hanging. I can still close it down, but then 
I have to use the Task Manager to close down the 'process'. In other 
words, it looks as if the program has closed (it disappears from the 
list of applications in the T.M.), but it then won't reload - starts 
up and closes down in half a second - so I went to the Processes tab 
and there it still was.

Personally I find it very irritating that the Main Menu has been 
turned off by default, yet there are no clear instructions as to how 
to turn it on - until you find them more or less by accident. The 
procedure is described in answers to my mutterings on  about page 13 
of the comments to the release of 10.50.
