I'm running it on a test box, and so far I don't really notice the 
difference. I need to learn how it works and experiment with security
policy, but out of the box I don't think most people will notice.
There's also an option where you can have SELinux implemented, but
rather than taking action, it just warns you of what it would do
if fully activated. Definitely a good way to learn.
