Yes, I use it.  I'll be covering it in my "Disk Management" presentation. 
Basically: "!!!!!IT ROCKS!!!!!".  Snapshotting for nice clean backups of live
filesystems, striping and stripe aware filesystems, moving disk packs between
machines,  migrating a filesystem from an old drive to a new one,  the whole
shhee-bang.  After installing LVM you'll walk around with a big dumb grin on
your face for days.  LVM is tre' cool, totally 31337, deep magic, and all those
other stange geek terms that denote awesome-ness.
