Could be somewhere right in front of me, but I don't see it...

Steve Johnson used to maintain the Bug Watch over at Cadalyst. Not sure if this is still active or not.
Short of that, you can just browse the 2011 newsgroup over at Autodesk. For the first couple of months, the only thing you will see in a new NG like this is complaints. Here is one such thread:

Thanks for the heads-up... I think I ought to wait a bit, to make sure I not gonna get caught up in problems (but I've got this brand new 64-bit beast of a machine here just burning a hole in my pocket...).
If you are on subscription, you could install and use 2011 as needed/required and install and use the older version in a VM or in 32-bit mode in Win7....

I agree, what may be a bug for one person may be something that isnt a bug for you because you never deal with it. One such "bug" is when mirroring and deleting the original objects, if you hover over the new objects, they highlight and stay highlighted. I however was unable to experience this bug, because of my selectionpreview system variable setting. So to me it isnt a bug, but for you, it may be an issue you cant live with. Another such "bug" is that 2011 broke our kip plotter drivers. This was an issue we couldnt live with, and I was forced to hold off until Kip released new drivers. (obviously if you cant print, you really cant use the software).
You'll never know until you use it in production.
Guys, while I understand what you are saying, if a part of the program is not working properly, it's a bug whether I'm going to use it or not. I'd much rather know whether or not I'm going to run into problems with certain features by reading about it in advance, than to shell out a couple of thou$ and then find out the hard way, since this method always seems to happen at a critical moment. I'm just weird that way...
Yup. Working on getting the DVD one now. Still hope to get a better idea of what to look for, in order to get the max out of the 30-day trial. Somebody was telling me that some of the display anomalies that I have seen mentioned might be a function of the graphics card drivers, so it will be interesting to see how well mine stacks up.
