My Snow Leopard update finished in about 45 minutes as well. Snow Leopard comes with some new features and abilities but I like the fact that I don't have to relearn anything. Awesome!

So, all is not entirely smooth in Snow Leopard / Apple land (see the "Printing" section of Snow Leopard support on the Apple forums for more details of the pain.)
