Default Mac OS X 10.5.2 is packing hefty fixes, due January-ish


5.2 ... damn el jobso seems tobe working over time

As much love as Apple's Mac OS X Leopard has received in the press and from users, there are still plenty of bugs that need ironing out. Lucky for those users and those not-easily-embarrassed members of the press, Apple seems to be addressing most of those remaining bugs with its 10.5.2 update, which it just seeded to developers. There are apparently 76 fixes listed in the release notes, ranging from fan-faves like MacBook AirPort funkiness to obscure gems like Rosetta PowerPC compatibility memory leaks. This is just the first distribution of the update, and a release to users is rumored to hit mid-January, coinciding with new hardware at Macworld.

Hmm. thats ok. Every OS has its own shares of fixes. ( I am on Fedora 8 Linux and Vista so i am not that much concerned with it )

make UNIX PERMISSION STRUCTURE and SECURITY FEATURES a must for every 10th class student.else,they will come here whining about mac or linux or bsd FYI M$ boys:unix permission is really tough to break and total increase in users wont make it vulnerable like window$.apple messed with freebsd fork darwin and now there are many suid bits set which *may* be vulnerable due to poor coding or flaw in binaries they made.

no one can do it better than M$,they even release fixes for fixes.lol.

anyways no OS is perfect and bugs come up as more and more people start using it,so no big deal if they are releasing fixes.

I'd written up a post for this one but the editors were afraid it might piss off Apple so it went unpublished.
