works for me. repair permissions before installing, and close all open programs during the install. once done, restart your mac before opening up DP, or trying to run the UAD-1 meter to authorize the demo for the new Helios EQ!

I've installed it. Works fine on my box (stats in signature). As far as I know, the only addition is the new EQ. I played with it a little. Didn't wow me, but EQs rarely do -- I have work with them in a mix before I really get a sense of what they do. Could be cool.

im on the fence whether to buy, i already have the neve bundle, and MWEQ is so versatile. It does sound pretty good on soloed bass tracks and on drums. like chrispick, i cant comment on how useful it would be in a mix, but the low band can really get things bumping. the low shelf (at 50hz) really sucks out bass in a hurry. A cool plugin in my opinion though.
