If you're a registered developer, it's on developer.apple.com under Additional Downloads
https://developer.apple.com/downloads/
When in Snow Leopard, I use Xcode 4.2 and the storyboards aren't compatible with the newer versions of Xcode.

Care to toss me the link to that thread?

Let's see. The open/save dialogs where the sheet comes down. Making the dock display and hide instantly, there are others. I forget. I've got most in a set of Terminal commands.

Yep. I checked in with the author of Carbon Copy cloner and showed him how to do it and he said that if he knew how to do that 6 months ago, he would still be in Snow Leopard.
My 17" MBP (Not buying another MBP until they make a 17 and one that is user serviceable) boots to Snow Leopard off an SSD and has a second drive for extra stuff. I only wish I could put in 24 or 32 GB of RAM, since Safari always ends up being such a bloated memory pig.
Cheers.
