If you look in the Installed Updates, each update links to a KB article which includes some more detail. I had an odd thing happen today after installing the updates though which was a game went and corrupted the graphics display after running it for a while. Never seen that before, but may be a coincidence.

An update prior to this one, made Office RT final already, i.e., my Office RT no longer shows Preview even before this update.

Mine is much snappier. Minesweeper seemed to have twice the framerate it had before. BTW, whoever designed the new Minesweeper deserves the Nobel Prize for Awesomeness!

Seems to be really noticeably snappier to me as well. It was already pretty quick for me but this is a big difference. Tuesdays are becoming my favorite days!
