I'll give it a go too... didn't have much trouble with the old client though so I don't know if I'll notice the changes

I'm gonna downgrade my client back to an older version, I have no idea why but it looks like Docking WUs are not working well there, hanging on 0% for 15+ hours o_O

I'm told there are certain combinations of Win7 and some motherboard chipsets that fail to crunch Docking this way.  My i5 did that, I got the i5-2500K crunching under Ubuntu 10.04.2LTS-64bit in Live mode, ~1:35 completion times. 
Hope I won't need to reboot often.

6.12.33 works better for me than 6.12.26 did. When I went to exit boinc manager, all WUs used to just keep on going. Now, the CPU WUs shut down. But the GPU WU keeps on going for awhile.
The whole 6.12.xx line is goofy. Don't like the 'Event Log' area, bring it back in a tab, I say. And the 'Notices' tab, I could do without.
Other than that, it lets me run boinc. So, there ya go.

Agreed, the tab was a lot more convenient, and the notices are annoying - I've already got enough daemons trying to get my attention without BOINC being noisy!
