Since Apple showed off Yosemite so well at the WWDC keynote, which was 
very public, there's little you can't discuss that wasn't already 
showed.

The things that aren't being discussed much by those that got the 
public beta are those things that have to do with the 
interaction/sharing between the Mac and iOS devices since there isn't a 
public beta of iOS8.

Almost all that I have posted in public forums has to do with the UI 
and that was VERY prominent at the keynote.

One comment I see repeated in many places is that Yosemite looks great 
on retina devices and not so good on non-retina devices.  I'd agree 
with that with the exception that I don't think Yosemite looks great on 
anything, but it has a much better look and feel on a retina device.

The problem is that none of the iMacs have retina, and not all the laptops do.
