The page sliders on the right of the windows have a slightly different aspect from other Mac apps (the sliders are not hidden by default), but they do work fine. This may be a Carbon vs. Cocoa thing. The same happens with MS Office 2011 anyway.

Now with Lion Textures takes only a couple of seconds to launch. Quite a dramatic change!
