- agilligan, on 11/16/2007, -6/+68That 110MB includes both PowerPC and Intel packages... I only had to download 40MB.
- GREEDOnvrFIRED, on 11/16/2007, -9/+62"iThings cost 300% more than normal things. Or are 300% less powerful than normal things. Take your pick."
That really sums it up... Unless you look at it through real life experience. Bought my mom a PC for $600 2 years ago and my mom used email, Internet and Word. Bought her an Mac for $1500 6 months ago and she has since created slide shows, edited movies and keeps a web gallery on her .Mac page. She wants Photoshop for xmass and asked if any of my friends want the Dell I bought her in '05.
When someone asks you if they should get a Mac or a PC ask yourself "how much do I like this person?" If the answer is "not a whole lot" then recommend a Mac. Because if you recommend a PC they are gonna be calling you ALOT. - bullsfan03, on 11/16/2007, -7/+46that's what she said.
- itchytooth, on 11/16/2007, -6/+44That was fast.
- Sprules04, on 11/16/2007, -2/+33Right click the printer icon in the dock and select "Auto Quit". That will fix that problem.
- joeycerone, on 11/16/2007, -11/+40What's included?

Resolves an issue in which files restored in Time Machine may be restored to the backup hierarchy rather than the folders to which they belong. - monkeyvoodoo, on 11/16/2007, -3/+24Or you could ... (wait for it) ... click on the title link and get the exact same text. Formatted.
Also, joeycerone: what gives?
I don't understand people on the Digg these days. You link to a blog, and get flamed for blogspam. Link directly to the content, and some awesome guy posts the content of the article in the comments. UNFORMATTED. *shakes head* - zacamjo, on 11/16/2007, -9/+28Sweet! Time to order Leopard...
- batguano, on 11/16/2007, -7/+25"System and Finder

So this is fixed now, the 6 people who held down Command whilst dragging files to other volumes will be pleased. - tktackett, on 11/16/2007, -1/+18My upgrade was only 39.8MB
- DMCer, on 11/16/2007, -3/+18When I hit Apple-F, the search bar is automatically highlighted and I can start typing. I haven't even downloaded the update yet.
- happytedium, on 11/16/2007, -0/+15"Resolves an issue with saved passwords for wireless networks."
Hooray. I'm so sick of typing in username/passwords every time I'm at work. - daveheinzel, on 11/16/2007, -4/+18Some minor issues that still hang around (was hoping they would be fixed with this update):
1) After printing a document, the print monitor for that printer still stays open in the dock.
2) I cannot connect to a FTP server using the Finder. I use Transmit for most FTP activity, but one day it would be nice if the Finder could let you WRITE to an FTP server as well. But now I can't even connect.
3) When hitting Apple-F in the Finder to start a Spotlight query, you have to manually click the search bar to start typing. In Tiger it was selected automatically, which is much more efficient.
4) In Mail, inline PDF attachments in incoming messages are displayed incorrectly. It crops them down to an awkward rectangular shape. This does not happen in outgoing mail.
I haven't spent much time using Adobe CS3 yet with 10.5.1, but its frequent crashes with 10.5 forced me to resort to Tiger. So far in the past half hour, InDesign hasn't crashed. Woo-hoo!
These might be issues specific to my system, but I thought I'd share anyway. It's the little things that can really ruin the experience of the operating system. - manitoba98xp, on 11/16/2007, -0/+13...so you're saying you like your mom "not a whole lot"?
- monkeyvoodoo, on 11/16/2007, -3/+16Though the answer to the problem is appreciated ... it seems rather unintuitive.
- skeen07, on 11/16/2007, -2/+15I've been using it every day, since the day it came out, without a single hitch.
- autoy, on 11/16/2007, -1/+13Actually, no:
10.0.1: 23 days
10.1.1: 19 days
10.2.1: 24 days
10.3.1: 17 days
10.4.1: 17 days
10.5.1: 19 days - itchytooth, on 11/16/2007, -2/+13Or if I'm a girl.
- AndrewWiggin, on 11/16/2007, -5/+16Thanks, though some formatting would have been nice.
- stalefries, on 11/16/2007, -0/+9@bullsfan03: good luck getting all those spam submissions out of your head. Or goatse for that matter.
- joeycerone, on 11/16/2007, -6/+14when you unpack it its 110.
- drlha, on 11/16/2007, -0/+8Java developers do, but I agree nobody else does.
- rdoger6424, on 11/16/2007, -1/+9That's a pretty big ***** problem
- Shiner6, on 11/16/2007, -0/+7Yea fortunately I had read the other article as well so I didn't think you were crazy.
- inactive, on 11/16/2007, -0/+7You're worried about 100 MB? Do you have a 2 GB HD or something?
- willwgm3, on 11/16/2007, -0/+7It is coming soon. In testing now.
- DelMonte, on 11/16/2007, -0/+7Does it happen every time you restart? Because it's normal that after a system update the next reboot will take longer than usual, as some stuff is only installed at that point. I think that it may also apply to the second reboot.
- Burn, on 11/16/2007, -0/+7So THAT'S how you do it. Awesome.
- bullsfan03, on 11/16/2007, -2/+9Digg should cache the article into my brain, that would solve all this having to click to view webpages!
- natenovs, on 11/16/2007, -0/+6there is nothing wrong with read-only ftp.
maybe he's not administer the server and wants to access the data and ftp is the only way.
why is everyone's solution to a bug to ridicule the user for wanting to do something? - kodybryson, on 11/16/2007, -1/+7Yes, unless you're lesbian then it's still she.
- smb3d, on 11/16/2007, -6/+12I'm not trying to be a troll or a Microsoft basher or whatever, but I just realized that Microsoft has never released any actual bugfixes, like you see coming from apple, or various linux sources. Maybe some things get fixed in the Service Packs, but nothing really that affects usability or longstanding problems. Take for instance the taskbar. Almost everytime I put my cursor over a tray icon, the popup text appears behind the taskbar. I have to double click on the time to see what the date is. How hard would it be to release actuall bug fixes for problems like these. Correct me if i'm wrong, but all the seem to release are patches for security holes.
- coldfusion1970, on 11/16/2007, -0/+5I bet you didnt erase and install 10.5.
The update was a lot faster for me than updating under Tiger. - nfxmedia, on 11/16/2007, -0/+5It has to rebuild the boot cache. Takes a bit more time than normal.
- luchid, on 11/16/2007, -0/+5Was that a trolling attempt? Keep trying, young fail-ridden grasshopper .
- daGUY, on 11/16/2007, -0/+5You needed to click the okay button...it doesn't restart until you hit ok. I got the same message.
- dhmlco, on 11/16/2007, -0/+5Glad to see Apple on the ball and getting out their first set of updates. But somewhat conspicuous by their absence are any mention of the Time Machine/AirPort issues, the Time Machine/Aperture issue, the Photoshop problems, the vanishing windows in Spaces, and so on.
See: http://www.iSights.org/2007/11/apple-releases.html - monkeyvoodoo, on 11/16/2007, -2/+7I'm not sure I've noticed any problems with Preview. It's faster than it used to be, and I haven't come across any functionality it used to have that's missing now.
Now, fixing iTunes or QuickTime ... there's something I'd really appreciate. Or the Finder. - rdoger6424, on 11/16/2007, -0/+4everything has updates.
- skinfitz, on 11/16/2007, -0/+4So is it safe to upgrade to Leopard yet?
- skinfitz, on 11/16/2007, -0/+4I'm a pro user. As much as I'd like to I can't yet until my suppliers issue patches and give the green light.
- counterplex, on 11/16/2007, -0/+4scp has the overhead of encryption which isn't always necessary.
- inactive, on 11/16/2007, -1/+5If you were a regular Mac user, instead of a Microsoft troll boy, you would already know that Apple regularly releases updates to their operating system. Nothing shocking here, Pancho.
- RyeBrye, on 11/16/2007, -6/+10Still no Java 1.6 - bastards.
- SlpingInsomniac, on 11/16/2007, -2/+6I haven't had any of the CS3 programs crash for me on 10.5.0 at all.
- antitab, on 11/16/2007, -0/+4At one time Java had very thorough support under OS X to the point of complete Cocoa integration. After Java tanked as an application platform, the support trickled away.
- inactive, on 11/16/2007, -0/+4No, many other have the same problem. It's all over the Apple discussion forums. Also got published in the media:
http://www.macworld.co.uk/mac/news/index.cfm?RSS&N ... - TheNik, on 11/16/2007, -1/+4Oh shi-... It wasn't safe earlier? :0
- Shiner6, on 11/16/2007, -3/+6My Adobe programs constantly crash. Major pain in the ass.
