So...the same release schedule as every year since 2012? Sure, there's a new Apple TV but there also wasn't an update to the core iPad for the first time ever.
We got three new operating systems in the same month. iPad Pro coming. Apple TV could have been better but it's better then what I have now. iPhones that in my opinion are awesome. Touch ID is so fast I barely get my hand on the phone, really fast CPU and even faster GPU. I would say it's also worth pointing out the iPhone rollout has been one of the best i've ever seen. My iPhone 6s + was suppose to come 10/1 it was here on 9/25.
Great. Now, when new Macs with Intel Skylake, Thunderbolt 3, USB 3.1 (reversible) generation 2, and SDXC reader supporting UHS-II maximum speed (300 MB/s), as well as Apple Keyboard with Numeric Keypad with built-in USB 3.1 ports and Apple Thunderbolt Display with such ports?
If you have Office 2016, don't download El Cap yet, Microsoft is still working on a fix, ETA unknown. 2011 appears to be unaffected.
I've been using the Beta for El Cap for a while now in conjunction with Office 2016, what is your issue? The Office suite works fine from what I've seen. Their (POS) OneDrive for Business client has issues but you can use the individual office apps to access your online content without any issues at all. It's been VERY stable in fact. I don't see it as a reason not to upgrade your OS, but your needs may vary,

If your are using any of the major music programs do upgrade yet. These companies are not ready for El Capitan. Motu midi driver, Finale 2014d, LogicX, etc.

I'm on the GM (15A282a). Is it worth while downloading the final version?
Downloading in the uk.....not so instant gratification with an hour to wait lol ??
I've just spotted it in UK Mac App Store. I think I'll wait until tomorrow morning before upgrading my 8 year-old iMac

Apparently not news worthy enough to be showcased on Apple's landing page, as of now.
Do you realise how stupid it makes you look railing on people eager for the update when the article says that Apple HAS released it?
Here are some other stupid stuff that is on the way every time a new release comes out...
“I can’t find it. What’s up with that, Apple?”
“My Mac is now a brick. Thanks Apple.”
“Don’t they test this stuff before releasing it?”
“Steve would never have allowed this.”
“The download is taking forever. Why can’t Apple get its act together?”
“I click and nothing happens. Thanks Apple.”
“I’m getting an error message and the installer won’t run.”
“Restore from a backup? What’s a backup?”
Stupid is as stupid does.
Installed and started using it.

I was asking myself the same question except that my GM is 15A282b.

Thanks for the info, I was not aware at all.
That said, I was not aware at all. I use Word and Excel quite heavily and have yet to have a single crash, maybe I am one of the lucky ones.

Yes.
BTW - since we are discussing Office related stuff: http://www.zdnet.com/article/microsoft-updates-onedrive-for-business-with-new-sync-client-updated-android-and-ios-mobile-apps/
Anyone know if it's the same as the GM?
It appears it is 15A284.
