Well, after being a little reluctant to try the update i decided to brave it and to my surprise everything worked flawlessly.
Downloaded the Mavericks installer app, created my USB, put Multibeast 6.0.1 in there too. Booted to the USB, ran the installer, restarted, went back in through the usb into the Hard Drive, no flags necessary, ran my driver and kext updates, initially only audio was not working after the update, did all that and vioala! Rebooted perfectly and actually noticed an increase in both shut down and startup speeds.
I am very glad all this went without a hitch. Oh! And i am happy to report that with the 10.8.2 ML i had always had to persistent issues that was a delay/pop with the audio, and sleep was not working right, with 10.9.1 this seems to have been resolved!
I still have to test dual monitor support, through DVI and HDMI but all in all i am very happy! Thanks to all the community for providing this great alternative to apple's great OS!
Will report back soon on how she's doing in the long term.
EDIT: 15-Feb-2014 - Forgot to mention this was an "update" style install, i had made a full image of my HD before starting, just in case anything funny happened, and was prepared to do a full clean install in that event, but like i said everything went smoothly and correctly as an update, not a fresh install.
16-Feb-2014 - Have left the machine on for a few hours, it goes to sleep normally, press a key and boom, right back to the log on screen. HDMI and DVI are working together, i want to test the DVI out to a VGA monitor with a DVI to VGA adapter, i need that functionality since i plan to run a projector as a secondary monitor for presentations and i want that working correctly, it was not before with 10.8.2, and most of the projectors i come across are VGA, some might be HDMI and im sure that will work properly, but just in case.
